About WITH

WITH-FM 90.1, a public radio station in Ithaca, New York, launched May 24, 2010. This station offers a mix of eclectic music programs including World Café with Raina Douris Steven Kallo, Open Tunings with Scott Regan, and Breakfast With The Beatles with Dave Kane, along with alternative news programs including Democracy Now with Amy Goodman and the BBC. WITH-FM is a broadcast partnership between WXXI and Hobart & William Smith Colleges (HWS).

In addition, WITH-FM, WXXI and HWS broadcasts a 24-hour HD radio service dedicated to Classical music, WITH-HD2.

In April 2010 WXXI and HWS announced a partnership between the Colleges' radio station, WEOS 89.7 FM, and WXXI, that would provide WEOS listeners access to increased local and regional news coverage through WXXI News. WXXI also agreed to assist WEOS in fulfilling its commitment to introduce a new radio service in the Ithaca region. 

The launch of WITH-FM supports WXXI and HWS’s pledge to build a solid public radio foundation in the Finger Lakes area. The additional station helps to strengthen the reach and diversity of public radio in the region that also includes WSKG. Future plans involve the addition of local Ithaca program hosts and live music performances from the region.

With more than fifty years of supporting the Greater Rochester area, WXXI has established itself as a vital community resource in areas of education, culture and public affairs. This new radio service strengthens WXXI’s on-going commitment to the region. For years, audiences have enjoyed tuning in to Classical 91.5, WXXI AM 1370, WXXI-FM 105.9, WRUR-FM 88.5 and WXXI-TV. PBS viewers across the country have discovered the beauty of the region by watching WXXI’s award-winning series New York Wine and Table, and documentary productions such as 15 Miles on the Erie Canal, Seneca Falls, and Great Homes of Canandaigua Lake.
