WHOW THE BIG 1520's agriculture, local news, and sports programming will be heard starting this spring on a new FM signal in McLean County.

Station officials have received approval from the Federal Communications Commission, to build a new 250-watt FM signal at 106-point-5 utilizing a tower on the west side of Bloomington-Normal.  It's expected the new signal will be on the air sometime this spring.

Station president and general manager Randal J. Miller said that WHOW is thrilled about bringing Central Illinois' Number One Ag Radio Station, to the county that produced the most corn and soybeans statewide in 2020.  

WHOW airs over 8 hours a day of agriculture programming, plus a live-and-local Morning Show, White Sox Baseball, Clinton Maroon high school sports, Clinton Little League and Legion Sports.  All of WHOW's programming is also streamed at illinoisfarmradio.com, on the WHOW mobile app, and Amazon Alexa.
