WFHB signed on in 1993 with a transmitter that was already used. We haven’t made significant upgrades to our transmission equipment since. If WFHB is to stay timely and relevant, we must upgrade our transmitter to support HD Radio. The new equipment is expensive -- nearly $100,000 total. But we have already come a long way to meeting this challenge. We have secured a digital conversion grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting worth $57,000, but we must match it with an additional $28,000. To date we have secured nearly $20,000. Now we need to raise just $8,000 more before March 15th!The WFHB transmitter will not only be newer, it will be a better, digital transmitter. We will be able to broadcast in high-definition (HD), which allows for additional channels, but just as importantly, improved CD-quality sound. We would love for you to experience that better sound, so if you pledge $180 to help us go digital we have a new Insignia Portable HD radio for you as our way of saying thanks. Of course, any amount is welcome and every pledge is appreciated. So, please show your support for Local, Live, Community, DIGITAL radio.
