History of New Hampshire Public Radio
In August, 1981, WEVO began broadcasting in the Concord-Manchester area. Originally known as Granite State Public Radio, the reach and level of service of the station has grown over the past 25 years.
In 1981, the station had 500 members; today it has nearly 15,000. In 1981, there was a single station; today, NHPR operates six transmitters and four translators. Its signal can be heard in almost every corner of the state.
Since 1991, NHPR has been broadcasting 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A staff of 13 produces newscasts and feature reports on matters important to New Hampshire, as well as our call-in program "The Exchange."
NHPR is committed to bringing the different regions of this state together. We believe that the more each of us knows about the daily realities of our fellow residents, the more able we will be to pull in unison to solve our common problems. |
