WUOT LAUNCHES iPHONE APPLICATION New App
Streams Audio for WUOT and
WUOT-2
Listening to public radio station WUOT 91.9
FM is now as easy as turning on your iPhone, thanks to a new
application launched this week by the
station.
The “WUOT
iPhone App” is a free download from the Apple iTunes
store for iPhones and iPod/Touch
devices.
The application
broadcasts 24 hours per day from the University of
Tennessee-licensed station’s two audio streams, WUOT and WUOT-2, on the
station’s website, wuot.org.
“Radio
isn’t radio in the traditional sense in this day and
age,” WUOT Director/General Manager Regina Dean said.
“We continually work to serve our listeners in the best
way we possibly can. As technologies emerge, it’s
important for us to stay up-to-date and give WUOT fans options
in how and when they listen.”
WUOT’s
application was developed for the station by Jacobs Media, which
has developed apps for commercial and public radio stations,
events, and syndicated radio programs including the popular
public radio show Car Talk. That program can be heard
on WUOT Saturdays at 10 a.m. and on WUOT-2 Saturdays at 1
p.m.
Listener-supported WUOT
91.9 FM is licensed to the University of Tennessee. WUOT is a
member of National Public Radio and a Public Radio International
affiliate. The station’s primary format is classical and
jazz music, news and public affairs. WUOT serves listeners
throughout East Tennessee and parts of Kentucky, North Carolina,
Georgia and Virginia. The station broadcasts 24 hours a day,
seven days a week, and streams on the web at wuot.org.
WUOT’s second audio channel, WUOT-2, is available on HD
Radio™, Internet radio, and on the
web.
