WRVH

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WRVH (107.9 FM) is a radio station in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, that plays an Adult Hits format. It is one of the few such stations that do not use a name as an identifier and has made light of that fact in its promotional liners.

[edit] History

The call letters, WRVH, once belonged to a Hudson Valley, New York, FM station, located at 105.5 on the FM dial, broadcasting as a class A facility with 3,000 Watts of effective radiated power. Its studio was located on Route 292 in Patterson, NY.

That station was licensed in 1982 and was the brainchild of Edward Valentine, who served as the station's general manager, as well as co-owner. It was owned by Richard Novik of North Salem, and Edward Valentine of Wappingers Falls, a retired engineer with International Business Machines.

The station played "Beautiful Music" format during the weekdays and on Sunday evenings at 7:30PM, the station featured an audiophile-oriented program called "Adventures in Sound", hosted by Anthony Fast. The station changed to Adult Contemporary format after the Beautiful Music format ended in 1986.
