WRCR/Rockford College Radio Photos -- WTPB-FM

In the spring of 2005, Third Presbyterian Church in Rockford began broadcasting on 99.3 with low power station WTPB. The transmitter and antenna for WTPB are located at Burpee Center. The church would like a cooperative effort with Rockford College where RC students will provide programming for some of WTPB's broadcast day. It was originally hoped that broadcasting would begin from campus in the Fall of 2005. That date was pushed back to second semester 2006. As of 1/1/2008 broadcasting had still not begun from campus.

Here's an entire radio station! That's a 5 disc CD player and an FM transmitter. They're in an equipment room in upper Burpee Center. Thanks to Dean Kenrick Peters for these pictures.

This space is at the opposite end of the hall from the former WRCR 3.0 location in lower Burpee Center.
