WZED-LP

WZED-LP is an FCC-licensed low power FM radio station located in Newport, North Carolina, broadcasting on FM channel 290 (105.9 FM). It is operated by the Carteret County public school system.

The station was the idea of Jamie T. Mercer, a middle school teacher of Computer Skills and Applications. Mercer constructed the station and a small production studio in summer 2013 after receiving a construction permit from the FCC. The station began broadcasting in late January 2014. WZED-LP is one of the few student-based and content-driven broadcast stations on the air. Its live station feed is available on its homepage.[1]
