WHOA! Help Us Bring Canalside Radio to Life!
WHOA-LP FM
We are thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for The Canalside Radio to expand beyond our internet-only platform and begin broadcasting on 107.3 MHz (our call letters will be WHOA-LP FM!). For years, we’ve been an online, community-driven radio station serving Orleans County and surrounding areas, but now we can bring local voices, music, news, and events to the FM airwaves, making our station even more accessible to listeners across the region.
Our mission remains simple: to provide a powerful hub for community connection and engagement by sharing the stories, talent, and events that matter most to our community.
But we can't do it alone! To make this leap to over-the-air broadcasting, we need to build essential infrastructure, including a transmitter and studio equipment. That's where you come in! We're reaching out to our friends, neighbors, and local businesses to help us raise $20,000 to cover the costs of this critical equipment.
Why Does Community Radio Matter?
Community radio is more than just music and talk—it’s a lifeline for local news, a platform for local artists, and a voice for underrepresented groups.
In a world of corporate media, The Canalside Radio will offer something unique: programming that reflects the heart and soul of our community. From local music showcases and interviews with community leaders to in-depth coverage of local events and issues, The Canalside Radio will be YOUR station, built by and for the people of Orleans County.
How You Can Help
With your support, we can build the technical foundation that will allow us to broadcast on 107.3 MHz and stream online so everyone, even those beyond the reach of our transmitter, can tune in. Every contribution brings us one step closer to launching this vital community resource.
