New voices are coming to the airwaves—at least that is the hope and promise of Takoma Radio.

Under a low-power radio station license granted by the Federal Communications Commission earlier this year, the non-profit Historic Takoma plans to begin broadcasting next summer.

Listeners tuning in to 94.3 FM WOWD-LP will find that power pop and shock jocks have been traded in for a mix of community voices, curated music, and local news. One show promises to relive hip hop hits from 1992-1999, while another is meant to serve as the radio equivalent of conversations at a coffee shop.

The community station, which will broadcast within two to five miles from its antenna site (under FCC rules, the transmitters for a low-power station must be 100 watts or less), will reach about 100,000 residents in D.C., Montgomery County, and Prince George’s County. Founded by Marika Partridge, a former director of NPR’s All Things Considered, a group of volunteers have been working to make Takoma Radio a reality for four years.

Now, they have a storefront in the heart of downtown Takoma and are busily training dozens of people in the art of radio production, acquiring equipment, and building out the studio. To that end, the group has launched an Indiegogo campaign in the hopes of raising $30,000 by July 4—they are a little more than halfway there already.
