W292DT (106.3 FM) — branded The Project 100.7 / 106.3 — is a commercial radio translator licensed to Auburn, Ohio providing limited coverage to northern parts of Greater Cincinnati. Owned by EMF Broadcasting, Inc. and currently under lease to Clear Channel Media and Entertainment, W292DT simulcasts the alternative rock format heard on the HD2 digital subchannel of Cincinnati rock station WEBN (102.7 FM). The same feed also airs over Cincinnati area translator W264BW (100.7 FM), and is available online via iHeartRadio.
History
W292DT began on September 24, 2004 as W238BJ. On April 24, 2009, the translator adopted its current callsign. Although FM translators in the U.S. are generally not permitted to originate their own programming, the Federal Communications Commission has recently allowed FM translators to simulcast the programming of both AM stations and HD2 digital subchannels. In effect, this allows radio companies to create additional analog stations, like W292DT, outside the traditional path established by the FCC. W292DT is such a station. Prior to August 2012, W292DT carried content from the K-LOVE radio network.[1][2]
Current programming
On August 16, 2012, translators W292DT and W264BW began simulcasting the alternative rock format on WEBN-HD2 as The Project 100.7 / 106.3. Music content for all three is programmed locally by the same Program Director as WEBN-FM, Chris Williams.
