How this directory works

  • Included: each LPFM the FCC lists as licensed (whether on the air, silent or running reduced power) plus every construction permit not yet built. Cancelled or deleted stations are left out.
  • Power is the station's height above average terrain and effective radiated power, taken from its current license, or from its permit if it is not licensed yet.
  • The licensee shown is the applicant named on the station's latest FCC application.
