"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or
praiseworthy--think about such things."
-- Philippians 4:8 (English-NIV)

Statement of Purpose
WECR exists to provide the campus community a center of information and
entertainment, with a dedication of bringing unity to the campus as a whole.
This is achieved through giving the student body the opportunity to
hear the type of entertainment that it desires and to give all campus
organizations as well as outside organizations of interest to the student
body the opportunity to have their messages communicated through the medium
of college radio. By providing a common conduit through which information
and entertainment may be spread, WECR hopes to serve in unifying the campus
community at large
WECR strives to serve the student body on a variety of levels. As students
must be given the option for growth in the context of a Christian
institution such as Eastern, so too the radio station is structured in its
format and operation to allow students the flexibility to learn more about
radio in genera, and more specifically, to learn how their faith may be
evidenced in their works with the station. It is with spiritual and
emotional growth in mind that the format of the station’s playlists and
rotations in not dictated exclusively by one particular view of the
Christian faith. WECR allows for diversity in its programming within the
limits of not only the FCC guidelines, but also the community standards and
sensibilities of Eastern College. WECR is committed to glorify God in all
that it does.
WECR hopes to be a vital part of the growing Communications Department at
Eastern College. WE hope to be one of the key communicative links to the
campus community at large and as such strives each day to reflect u[pon its
course and take corrective action at the earliest possibility. With these
goals in mind, WECR accepts volunteer employees to work in all fields
related to radio station operations and encourages students to stretch the
limits of their creativity in serving fellow students.
Broadcast Information
WECR-AM currently operates at at frequency of 1,410 khz, under the carrier
current rules of the Federal Communications Commission. These rules say
that the signal should be confined to the campus. WECR operates with a
transmitter power output of 15 watts. During the night time hours when the
skywaves of other AM stations interfere with our signal, this wattage is
necessary to maintain a clear signal on campus. During daylight hours when
the ionosphere absorbs the skywaves of other stations, WECR's signal has a
slightly larger radius with the fringe including the towns of Wayne, Bryn
Mawr, and King of Prussia (out to the King of Prussia Mall). WECR's
Transmitter and tower are located on the roof of the Warner Library, and
the studio is located in the basement of Kea Hall.
