WPRZ-FM (88.1 FM) is a Religious non-commercial educational radio station licensed to serve the community of Brandy Station, Virginia, USA. The station covers the greater Culpeper, Virginia, area. WPRZ-FM is owned and operated by Praise Communications, Inc.[2]

History

After applying in October 2007 and overcoming an engineering objection by the American Family Association in July 2008, Praise Communications was granted the original construction permit for this station on December 16, 2009.[3] This construction permit is scheduled to expire on December 16, 2012.[3]

Initially granted the call sign WKYF on January 21, 2010, the permit holder applied to the FCC for a change and the station was assigned new call sign WPRZ-FM by the Federal Communications Commission on March 1, 2010.[1]

Broadcasting

As of February 15, 2010, Praise Communications was "ready to order the antenna, the transmitter, and the building to house the transmitter which will be located at the tower site".[4] While construction and resting were underway, the station broadcast online only, via their website, from studios in Warrenton, Virginia. The station began regular broadcast operations on May 28, 2010.[5]
