WGBH (89.7 FM MHz) is a public radio station located in Boston, Massachusetts. WGBH is a member station of National Public Radio (NPR) and an affiliate of Public Radio International (PRI) and American Public Media (APM). The license-holder is the WGBH Educational Foundation, which also owns WGBH-TV and WGBX-TV. The station, dubbed "Boston Public Radio", renamed "Boston's Local NPR", broadcasts a news-and-information format during the daytime (including NPR News programs and PRI's ''The World'', which is a co-production of WGBH, PRI, and the BBC World Service), and jazz music during the nighttime. "GBH" stands for Great Blue Hill, the location of WGBH's FM transmitter, as well as the original location of WGBH-TV's transmitter. Great Blue Hill in Milton, Massachusetts, has an elevation of 635 feet (193 m), is located within the Blue Hills Reservation, and is the highest point in the Boston area. (Mai Cramer, longtime host of the program ''Blues After Hours'', jokingly maintained that the station's call sign stands for "We Got Blues Here!") ==Stations== WGBH also operates a separately-programmed service for the Cape Cod and Islands area, with a full-time news-and-information format. This service is simulcast on three stations: WCAI (90.1 FM) Woods Hole, WNAN (91.1 FM) Nantucket, and WZAI (94.3) Brewster. WGBH also owns WCRB (99.5 FM, previously at 102.5 FM), a classical music station. This service is simulcast by two stations, WNCK (89.5 FM) in Nantucket and WJMF (88.7 FM) in Smithfield, Rhode Island (near Providence). Both WCAI and WCRB are also simulcast on HD Radio sidechannels of WGBH itself. The WCRB simulcast on WGBH-HD2 is also relayed by translator W242AA (96.3 FM) East Cambridge, as the Federal Communications Commission regards it as a WGBH translator (from October 1991 until April 8, 2010, W242AA carried WGBH's main service). WGBH, WCAI, and WCRB all webcast their audio programming on the internet. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「WGBH (FM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
