WCQS

WCQS (88.1 FM) is the flagship National Public Radio member station for Asheville, North Carolina. The station is currently owned by Western North Carolina Public Radio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WCQS Facility Record )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WCQS Station Information Profile )
==History==
WCQS began in the early 1980s as WUNF-FM, a 110-watt station operated by the University of North Carolina at Asheville. Western North Carolina Public Radio bought the station in 1984, changed the calls to WCQS, and immediately secured a membership agreement with NPR. While most of the station's coverage area was served by South Carolina Educational Radio's Upstate outlet, WEPR in Greenville, WNCPR wanted to build a station that would be tailored to the area's interests.
Eventually, the station increased its power to 1,600 watts, still a fairly modest level for a full NPR member. This may be due to the need to protect WRVL in Lynchburg, Virginia, located at adjacent 88.3. As a result, even though its transmitter is located above sea level, its coverage area is effectively limited to Asheville and its close-in suburbs in Buncombe, Haywood and Henderson counties.
In 2005, WNCPRI bought WVMH, a radio station operated by Mars Hill College, and changed its calls to WYQS. Originally a straight simulcast of WCQS, it broke off in 2008 and now airs the BBC World Service full-time. WYQS operates at only 100 watts, but is available on WCQS' HD subcarrier.
In the summer of 2010, Jody Evans joined WCQS as executive director, replacing Ed Subkis, who held the job for 18 years. She wanted WCQS to become a source for news and information, and she planned on more area news coverage and working with other news media. Other than that, no major changes were planned. One joint project was live broadcasts from Brevard Music Center, which would use the resources of WDAV in the Charlotte area.〔 〕
Evans said in February 2011 that WCQS would have more emphasis on local news, and that David Hurand's evening shows "Byline", "Conversations", and "Evening Rounds" would be dropped. Hurand was adding local news reports during the more popular shows ''Morning Edition'' and ''All Things Considered''. Competition from television was one reason for the change. New national shows being added included ''Marketplace'' and ''The Splendid Table''.
On March 24, 2013, WCQS added WMQS at 88.5 FM, to serve the Murphy area.
