WPSC

88.7 FM WPSC is the student-run radio station at William Patterson University in Wayne, New Jersey.  Before they could secure an FM signal in a crowded NY/NJ market they were an AM carrier current station heard on 590 AM.  The call letters reflected the school's name at the time--William Patterson State College.  For a time in the early 1970s WPSC arranged with WFMU to broadcast their programming for a few hours a week.  Later in the decade they could be heard through televisions in a three county area via Cablevision's Channel 3.  They received their FM license in 1983 and began broadcasting at 88.7 while playing mostly Top-40 music.  Formats over the years also included Alternative and Hip-Hop.  Their website says that their format is currently Indie Music with specialty shows on the weekend as well as play-by-play coverage of William Patterson Pioneer sports.  WPSC has won multiple Marconi awards for College Radio Station of the Year as well as Best College Radio Station from the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System.
