}}WHAN is a Variety formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Ashland, Virginia, serving Ashland and Hanover County, Virginia as well as the northern half of the Metro Richmond, Virginia region.[2] WHAN is owned by Fifth Estate Broadcasting, LLC.[6]

History

On February 1, 2015, Charlottesville-based public broadcaster WTJU began simulcasting its programming on WHAN in an attempt to use its FM translator to reach the Richmond market.[2] WTJU operated the station daily from 1am to 6pm as part of a three-year local marketing agreement.[3] Through a separate agreement with WTJU, Virginia Commonwealth University webcaster WVCW broadcast on WHAN Monday through Thursday from 6pm to 1am and Friday from 9pm to 1am, with additional broadcasting time allowed for special events. Local programming filled the remaining timeslots 6pm-9pm on Friday evenings and 6pm-1am on weekends.[4]

WTJU terminated the local marketing agreement effective August 16, 2017, citing financial reasons. WHAN returned to a locally programmed music format, branded "102.9 The Mater", which it describes as a mix of classic Southern rock and 1990s alternative rock.[5][6]

Translator

In addition to the main station, WHAN is relayed by an FM translator to replicate the daytime signal of 1430 AM on the FM dial 24 hours a day.[7]
