WKCP (89.7 MHz FM), Classical South Florida, is a classical music-formatted radio station in Miami, Florida. This listener supported, nonprofit public radio station is owned and operated by American Public Media, which also owns Minnesota Public Radio. The station's primary transmitter is located on the WTVJ tower at 17107 SW 248 Street, 4.5 miles due north of downtown Homestead.
WKCP's programming includes Performance Today, SymphonyCast, Pipedreams and Saint Paul Sunday. WKCP also broadcasts from translator station W270AD in West Palm Beach at 101.9 FM.[1]
[edit] Lawsuit by former listeners
On October 19, 2007, the Christian Family Coalition spearheaded a lawsuit brought by two local residents, who filed suit against American Public Media and Trinity University and its officers, seeking an injunction and $15,000 in damages for the plaintiffs and an injunction to block the sale and format change. The station signed back on a week prior to what was originally planned, partly in an effort to thwart any potential legal action prior to Federal Communications Commission approval of the sale.[2]
