Columbus, Ohio – July 1, 2010 – WOSU Public Media, through its licensee, The Ohio State University, has agreed to terms to acquire frequency, 101.FM, to expand WOSU’s public service broadcasting for the region.  WOSU expects to officially take over the station within 90 days pending FCC approval.

WWCD 101.1FM is a locally owned alternative rock radio station, which will continue to provide its programming through 102.5FM.

WWCD is owned by Fun With Radio LLC, Inc.

Fun owner Roger Vaughan, said: “We plan to relocate CD101’s programming to 102.5, and we are pleased to provide an opportunity to play an integral part in WOSU’s efforts to provide a 24-hour classical music station in Central Ohio.  Both the sale of the 101 frequency and CD101’s programming move to 102.5 are unbelievably positive for the future, allowing us to continue to serve our listeners, our advertisers and help the university we love.  We are extremely excited.  This could not have worked out better!”
