WZRT 97.1 FM

Commercial Top 40 contemporary hit radio station serving the Vermont-New Hampshire region. The station originated in the mid-1970s and operated under various formats including adult contemporary and oldies before transitioning to alternative rock in the early 1990s. The format change resulted from a competitive market realignment when on-air staff from a competitor station launched new programming. The station is currently owned by a radio broadcasting company. From 1995, the station has hosted an annual all-day music festival featuring alternative and punk bands from touring circuits and local artists. The station operates with studios in the downtown area and uses a transmitter on a mountain peak providing extensive regional coverage.
