What Is A Low Power FM Station ?

The Low Power FM (LPFM) radio service was created by the Commission in January 2, 2000. LPFM stations are authorized for noncommercial educational broadcasting only (no commercial operation) and operate with an effective radiated power (ERP) of 100 watts (0.1 kilowatts) or less, with maximum facilities of 100 watts ERP at 30 meters (100 feet) antenna height above average terrain (HAAT).  The approximate service range of a 100 watt LPFM station is 5.6 kilometers (3.5 miles radius)(or more, with right transmitter / tower site)  A construction permit is required before an LPFM station can be constructed or operated.
