We are Huntley’s only all-volunteer, professionally guided, radio station…built by people who live here…for people who live here!
We love to play “The Greatest Music Of Time” featuring music from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, and we also offer many ways to stay “Informed and Connected” to our community.
Weekdays, we provide news and weather reports, and share information about local community organizations and businesses that serve you and your family.
Weekend programming includes live music shows and long form interview programs to spotlight local non-profit organizations, as well as many features of our great community of Huntley.
There are many ways to listen…on your radio at 101.5 FM, online right here by clicking “LISTEN LIVE”, or by downloading the RadioMax mobile app from your favorite app store. We are also on Facebook, so search @HuntleyRadio and give us a “Like.”
If you enjoy what you hear, let us know by clicking “About ” at the top of this page and “Contact Us” with your comments, and tell a friend of two about us!
Thanks for stopping by, and we hope you enjoy 101.5 FM Huntley Community Radio.
LIVE on 101.5 FM
Yes. Since October 14, 2014 Huntley Community Radio has been broadcasting 24/7 at 101.5 Mhz on the FM band using the call letters WHRU-LP.
Turn the dial to 101.5 FM or listen on our website.
We installed an antenna at the top of the water tower located at Haligus and Kreutzer roads in Huntley that is connected to our FM transmitter in the base of that water tower. We then send the audio from our Deicke Park studios to the water tower via the Internet.
By law, as a low-power FM station, we are restricted to broadcasting at a signal strength no greater than 100 watts from a height no greater than 100 feet above ground level. This in effect limits its broadcast distance to approximately 5 radial miles from our transmitting antenna atop the Huntley water tower at Haligus and Kruetzer Roads without a perceived weakness in its signal. All of Huntley and portions of Lake In The Hills, Gilberts, Lakewood, Algonquin, and Hampshire are covered within this distance.
Our local coverage pattern on 101.5FM can be seen below as recognized by the Federal Communications Commission. If you are listening outside the “red circle” you may experience some “static.”
Of course, 101.5FM Huntley Community Radio simulcasts online. You can also listen on this website by clicking “LISTEN LIVE” or on your mobile device or tablet on the Tune-In App, or by downloading the RadioMax app from your favorite app store.
