WLRN-FM (91.3 FM) and WKWM (91.5 FM) are non-commercial, listener-supported, public radio stations for South Florida and the Florida Keys. WLRN-FM is licensed to Miami and WKWM is licensed to Marathon. They are owned by Miami-Dade County Public Schools. The offices and studios are on NE 15th Street in Miami.
WLRN-FM is a Class C1 station and WKWM is Class C3. WLRN-FM's transmitter is off SW 52nd Avenue in Pembroke Park. WKWM's transmitter is off Route A1A in Ramrod Key. Programming is also heard on four FM translators in South Florida.
WLRN-FM and WKWM are the flagship NPR member stations in South Florida. They air a news and information format during the day with jazz at night and the BBC World Service overnight. Weekday information shows include Morning Edition, All Things Considered, Fresh Air, 1A, Here and Now, The World and Marketplace. There are two weekday evening music programs: Radyo Lekol, a Haitian Creole show and Weeknight Jazz, which features traditional and contemporary jazz music.
Weekend specialty shows include Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, The Moth Radio Hour, The TED Radio Hour, The New Yorker Radio Hour, The Ezra Klein Show, Travel with Rick Steves, A Way with Words, Freakonomics Radio, Latino USA, Science Friday, Hidden Brain, Radiolab and This American Life.
As of 2022, WLRN-FM has three repeaters in the Florida Keys: 93.3 W227AD in Key Colony Beach, 89.1 W206AS in Big Pine Key, and 100.5 W263BO in Key West.
In late September 2008, WLRN launched a full-powered, class C3, 12 kW station, WKWM 91.5, in Marathon, Florida, which simulcasts WLRN programming for the southern Keys. This station broadcasts in HD Radio. WKWM has one repeater, 92.1 W221AY in Tavernier.
To serve the Palm Beaches of South Florida, WLRN-FM leases FM translator 101.9 W270AD in West Palm Beach. It has a power of 250 watts and is fed by an HD2 subchannel of 90.7 WFLV. The translator and HD2 subchannel are owned by the Educational Media Foundation based in Tennessee.
WLRN-FM signed on the air in 1949. Its original call sign was WTHS-FM and it broadcast on 91.7 MHz. It was powered at 5,000 watts, a fraction of its current output. It has always been owned by the Miami public school system, although in its early years, the holder of the license was The Board of Public Instruction of Dade County. The studios and offices were at 1410 NE 2nd Avenue.
