WREK


91.1 FM WREK is the student-run radio station broadcasting from the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta.  They went on the air in 1968 with a ten-watt signal and studio equipment donated by Nashville's WSM.  They now pump out an astounding (for a college station) 100,000-watts giving them coverage across the entire Atlanta metro area.  The WREK call letters are a direct reference to the Ramblin' Wreck, a 1930 Ford Model A Sport Coupe which has led Georgia Tech's football team onto the field for every home game since 1961.
