WWCR International Shortwave Nashville, TN WMQM 1600 AM
1300 WWCR Avenue Nashville, TN 37218 National Sales Line: 1-800-238-5576 Welcome to FW Robbert Broadcasting! FWR stations broadcast domestically from New Orleans, Memphis, Nashville and Knoxville. FWR also provides global coverage on international shortwave via WWCR. WWCR reaches over 120 countries each day with a potential audience of 1 billion listeners. WWCR listeners range from highly educated professions in North America and Europe to listeners in Africa and South America who live in poverty; often without electricity and certainly without access to the internet. WWCR stands for World Wide Christian Radio. Since 1989, WWCR has assisted churches and evangelists in their missionary endeavors. WWCR’s signal reaches areas which are mostly inaccessible to Christian organizations. WWCR has been proven to reach Muslim countries where Christianity is forbidden. With such a broad footprint, WWCR also reaches extremely rural areas within North America where no churches are found. When the world is your audience, the audience is very, very diverse. WWCR’s powerful transmitters provide daily encouragement and Christian teaching to many who would otherwise not hear the Gospel. In more developed Christian nations, we routinely hear from listeners who simply prefer the shortwave transmission over any other type of medium. WWCR has earned a world-wide reputation for being an uncensored, constant supply of information and culture through a wide variety of programming, news and music ranging from Country (we are in Nashville), Gospel, Blues and even a program that features music which was recorded before radio broadcasting began! The programs are meant to attract and retain audiences. -
