WGOT-LP
WGOT-LP (100.1 FM) was a low power FM radio station that broadcast from Gainesville, Florida, United States. WGOT-LP was last operated as a community radio station by the Civic Media Center, a non-profit library in Gainesville.
History
The Civic Media Center first applied for a permit for a low-power FM station in 2001. The construction permit for WGOT-LP was granted in May 2005. WGOT-LP originally broadcast on 94.7 MHz, sharing this frequency with WVFP-LP, owned by the Faith Presbyterian Church, and WGLJ-LP, owned by the Calvary Church Gainesville. The frequency was previously used by Free Radio Gainesville, a pirate radio station. In January 2012, the station began streaming its audio online. Streaming was terminated due to copyright issues in October 2015.
Frequency change
On February 28, 2017, the station moved to 100.1 MHz to facilitate 24-hour operation. The Civic Media Center and Library surrendered WGOT-LP's license to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on October 10, 2023; the FCC cancelled the license the following day.
Programming
WGOT-LP aired several locally produced programs and a weekly one-hour show produced by the Civic Media Center and Counterpoise volunteers. The station was a Pacifica Radio affiliate and broadcast several Pacifica programs, including Democracy Now! with Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez.
