Translators

ReachFM was heard throughout the state of Florida on more than 40 community stations:

The station's programming could also have been heard on four full power FM radio digital subchannels in Florida:

  • WWJK-HD2 107.3 Green Cove Springs (Jacksonville)
  • WMGE-HD2 94.9 Miami - Fort Lauderdale
  • WRUM-HD2 100.3 Orlando
  • WKGR-HD2 98.7 Wellington (West Palm Beach)

    • Sale of translators

    It was announced on July 2, 2012 that Reach Communications is selling the following translators to Beasley Broadcasting for $150,000, which will serve as rebroadcasters for WWCN 770 ESPN:

    These translators now serve as repeaters for WRXK-FM HD2 (going by the slogan The Link) along with the following translator:

    Some translators were sold to Clear Channel (now iHeartMedia), which may spark rumors that Reach FM will sell all of its remaining translators to iHeartMedia.

  • In Orlando, W283AN was sold to iHeartMedia and changed formats into an urban contemporary-formatted, "104.5 The Beat".
  • In Tampa, 88.3 moved to 99.1 and became one of the affiliates for classic rock-formatted "Thunder Tampa Bay" along with W290BJ and W233AV, while 89.3 which moved to 99.9 became branded as "ALT 99.9" and converted to an alternative formatted station. However, after many complaints from WXJB, due to interference, W207BU switched frequencies from 99.9 to 100.3, and rebranded as alternative-formatted "ALT 100.3".
  • In Miami, W228BV moved to 93.5 and converted into a country formatted station, "93.5 The Bull"

    • One translator got sold to Beasley Media Group in November 2014 and now is a repeater for WSBR on 740 AM.
