The station, owned by the Ocracoke Community Radio, Inc., airs a variety format of music, news, and local public affairs programming.[1] In addition to its FM signal, the station streams on the internet at wovv.rocks.[2][3] BackgroundStarted in 2008 by volunteers intent on bringing community radio to Ocracoke Island, the station was licensed by the FCC on November 10, 2010.[4][1] Serving part of North Carolina's Outer Banks region, WOVV provides vital information to residents and visitors during weather emergencies such as Hurricane Florence in 2018, often operating under generator power.[5] In October 2016, Hurricane Matthew toppled WOVV's transmitting tower, knocking the station off the air for a month. While WOVV continued to stream on the internet using a backup generator, the station's volunteers scrambled to return WOVV to the airwaves. Within a month, WOVV was back on the air at reduced power using a borrowed antenna. The next year, in November 2017, a new 70-foot tower was installed with a custom-built directional antenna, enabling WOVV to extend its reach as far as the Hatteras Inlet, about 25 miles.[6] See also
