  • WPGC-FM is one of the most popular among Washington, D.C. 's urban format radio station]s, and has been ranked as one of its top rated radio stations for over 20 years, according to the Arbitron ratings. It has a city of license of Morningside (its studios are located in Lanham) at the 95.5 MHz frequency on the FM dial. Its tower operates at an effective radiated power of 50 kilowatts (kW) and is located in Capitol Heights, Maryland. It also formerly shared the WPGC calls with sister station WPGC-AM, which once played urban gospel music (the AM station is now talk as WHFS). In 2005, WPGC began broadcasting in IBOC digital radio, using the HD Radio system from iBiquity. Despite being a Rhythmic contemporary station according to Mediabase reports, it primarily plays urban contemporary music (as Nielsen BDS reports it as an urban), making WPGC-FM an urban-leaning rhythmic station. In addition, WPGC-FM is the only rhythmic targeted towards Baltimore listeners, putting competition up against WERQ, a Radio One-owned urban contemporary station & WZFT, a Clear Channel owned contemporary hit radio station. WPGC-FM follows the trend of adding urban adult contemporary songs before any other rhythmic contemporary station with a similar trend done by other CBS Radio stations such as debuting more hot adult contemporary songs before any adult contemporary at WWFS New York City & debuting more contemporary hit radio songs before any other major-market hot adult contemporary at WWMX Baltimore.
