WXPN is a public radio station in the United States. This is a non-commercial radio station owned by the University of Pennsylvania. It broadcasts an adult album alternative format (this format includes broad range of styles from mainstream pop and rock to jazz, folk, blues, country). Thanks to its quality content WXPN became popular among ordinary listeners, but it also became authoritative among other radio stations. One of its programs (World Café) is distributed by NPR to many non-commercial radio stations across the United States..
WXPN started broadcasting in 1945 on 730 kHz AM frequencies. In 1957 it also started broadcasting on 88.9 MHz FM. They took the callsign WXPN (which means Experimental Pennsylvania Network) and never changed it since then.
