Public license information | |
WNPH (90.7 FM) is a non-commercial educational radio station licensed to Portsmouth, Rhode Island, United States, serving the Aquidneck Island area. The station is owned by The Public's Radio (TPR), the statewide NPR member station for Rhode Island, through licensee Rhode Island PBS Foundation and The Public's Radio.
TPR acquired the license in 2021 from Portsmouth Abbey School, a Benedictine institution, which had established it as a classical music station under the WJHD call letters in 1972. After nearly 50 years, the station was taken off the air in 2021 and the license sold.
WNPH is currently operating at low power under special temporary authority from the Federal Communications Commission as TPR seeks to relocate to a new transmitter site off the Portsmouth Abbey School campus.
