WOXR (90.9 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Classical music format. Licensed to Schuyler Falls, New York, USA, the station is currently owned by Vermont Public Radio^[2] as the flagship station of the VPR Classical network.

History

The station went on the air as WAVX in November 2004, a contemporary Christian music station owned by Christian Ministries.^[3] WAVX was sold to Vermont Public Radio in 2007^[4] to fund upgrades at sister station WGLY-FM (the "Wave" format would subsequently move to a HD Radio subchannel of WGLY).^[1] Christian Ministries ended its operation of the station on August 29, with VPR relaunching the station as the flagship station of VPR Classical two days later.^[1] The callsign was changed to WOXR, a homage to WQXR-FM in New York City,^[1] on September 26.^[5]
