WKEU FM 88.9

A noncommercial educational FM station broadcasting a classic hits format, this outlet holds the distinction of being highly unusual among its noncommercial peers. The vast majority of noncommercial educational stations in the United States carry college, Christian, public radio, or independent programming, whereas this station broadcasts classic rock — a format far more commonly associated with commercial radio. Its city of license is The Rock, Georgia, and it operates as a sister station to a co-owned AM outlet in nearby Griffin, Georgia. The station is owned by Georgia Public Radio, Inc., an entity unaffiliated with Georgia Public Broadcasting's GPB Radio network. Programming also incorporates content from ABC Radio. Originally launched in 1999, the broadcast call sign was previously assigned to a frequency of 97.5 FM in Fayetteville, Georgia, before moving to its current 88.9 FM position. Notably, the station conducts no on-air underwriting announcements, pledge drives, fundraising activities, or self-promotion of any kind. There are no radio disc jockeys and minimal talk between songs, with operations appearing to run entirely on broadcast automation. This combination of a noncommercial license, a commercial-style format, and fully automated presentation without listener funding makes it a rare example within the American radio landscape.
