The Lowdown on Starved Rock's Radio Waves
For over seven and a half decades, WLPO has been the go-to hub for people in Starved Rock, keeping them informed about their local community. With time, WLPO has evolved with the modern world. Today, it's not just on AM 1220, but also on FM 103.9 and streaming online to hundreds of thousands of listeners each month.
99.3 WAJK, with one of the strongest signals around Starved Rock, boasts a sizable audience. Social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, SMS, Email, and even good old fashioned Print are all part of the package. The FM translator of WLPO AM gets this station on the FM dial, expanding its reach and influence.
During daytime hours, WLPO AM covers all of north central Illinois, while at night it continues to deliver solid local coverage from Starved Rock. WLWF-FM (96.5 the Wolf) provides the strongest signal for the biggest country music listener groups in Ottawa and Streator.
Radio still reigns supreme around Starved Rock, but technology is ever-evolving. Starved Rock Media stations are adapting, and you can tune in from anywhere, anytime via mobile apps, smart speakers, StarvedRock.media, and various streaming services. News, information, music, and entertainment—it's all LOCAL, born right from the studios adjacent to Illinois Valley Community College in Oglesby.
From Tom Henson's first Starved Rock Local news of the day to coverage of breaking news, severe weather, local sports, and even Illinois Valley Pistol Shrimp baseball and Chicago Bears football starting in 2023, no one does it better than Starved Rock Media. Their awards from the Illinois Broadcasters Association's Silver Dome Awards are a testament to their dedication and excellence.
