About the station
WXXI News 105.9 FM is Rochester's full-power FM home for local public-service journalism, NPR news, interviews, public affairs, and the daily Connections talk program.
WXXI-FM 105.9 launched in 2023 as a 24-hour simulcast of WXXI 1370 AM. The two separate FCC facilities correctly share the same verified WXXI News stream.
Records name WXXI Public Broadcasting Council as the owner or licensee.
Editorial standards
We match the call sign, licensed frequency, city of license, and facility identity against FCC data. We then compare the station name, format, schedule, and related signals with the station’s official website and test the listed stream in a browser-compatible player. Regional restrictions, breaking news, and live sports can still change availability or programming.
