  • WFMT is an FM radio station in Chicago, Illinois, featuring a format of fine arts and classical music programming (along with shows exploring such genres as folk and jazz). The station is managed by Window To The World Communications, Inc. , owner of WTTW, one of Chicago's two Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Public television stations. WFMT is also the primary station of the WFMT Radio Network, and the Beethoven and Jazz Satellite Networks. A unique feature of this commercial station is that they air no pre-recorded (by non-station hosts) advertising on-air. A brief attempt at introducing pre-recorded commercial advertising, the only time in their long history, proved unpopular with listeners. All advertising on the station is currently read exclusively by WFMT's on-air hosts. WFMT's programs can be heard through their satellite services, or syndication, internationally. The station's programming is available online as well. WFMT is an associate member of the European Broadcasting Union, the only local broadcast station of any kind in the United States that holds that title.
