HOPE 100.7/WEEC Expands Reach with Launch of HOPE 88.3/WHRN

As of February 19, 2026, HOPE 100.7 (WEEC) has expanded its broadcast reach through the addition of HOPE 88.3 (WHRN).

Licensed to Springfield, HOPE 100.7’s signal spans a wide region, reaching listeners from Richmond to the western side of Columbus. The newly established HOPE 88.3, licensed to Newark, operates as a simulcast of HOPE 100.7 and now serves audiences on the eastern side of Columbus.

HOPE 88.3 had been broadcasting from a temporary tower for approximately one year while construction of a permanent transmission facility was underway. With the completion of the permanent tower, the station has transitioned to full operation.

Station leadership expressed gratitude, noting that the expanded coverage area will allow the network to reach an additional 700,000 to 800,000 people.
