WRTE
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WRTE 90.5 FM is a non-profit community radio station owned and operated by the National Museum of Mexican Art (Formerly the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum) in Chicago, Illinois. The station broadcasts at 73 watts and is centered in the heart of the majority Latino neighborhoods of Pilsen and Little Village. "Radio Arte" as it is known operates with adult and youth volunteers which go through a rigorous 12 month program before going on air and learning the art of radio. Currently the station plays a majority of Latin Alternative music with some other genres in between. It is one of few stations in the United States still playing Latin Alternative or Rock en español.
WRTE originally signed on as WCYC with licensee, Boys Club of Chicago, which was said to stand for "connecting youth to Chicago" The Boys (and girls) Club sold the radio station to the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum in 1997, renaming the station WRTE. The MFACM has since relocated studios to 1401 W 18th St (corner of 18th St, Blue Island Ave, and Loomis St); WRTE's transmitter is still located at the Boys and Girls Club located at 2801 S. Ridgeway in Chicago, IL.
