Jazz, World, Talk
Alabama Public Radio began in January 1982 with WUAL-FM in Tuscaloosa, the state's fifth public radio station. Licensed to the University of Alabama, the station emphasized service to the immediate western Alabama area in its first years of operation. In the late 1980s, the University, in cooperation with the University of North Alabama, expanded the network with WQPR-FM, bringing public radio service into northwestern and south central Alabama. It was followed in the early 1990s by WAPR, which is jointly owned by the University, Alabama State University, and Troy University, and by 100.7 FM in Huntsville.
Alabama Public Radio is a network of public radio stations based in Tuscaloosa, Alabama that serves roughly the western half of the state of Alabama with classical, folk, jazz, and nostalgic music programs, as well as local news and news and feature programs from National Public Radio, Public Radio International, and American Public Media networks.
