North Country Community Radio Reaches New Heights
NCCR (North Country Community Radio) reaches new heights by Tara Giles March 26, 2018 [email protected] LITTLETON- North Country Community Radio, better known as NCCR, has reached a new level of growth, the way founder Nate Alberts always thought it would when he...
All-volunteer North Country Community Radio is low on power but big on motivation
It’s tiny and, at 100 watts, a bit underpowered, but what North Country Community Radio lacks in size it more than makes up for by playing some of the coolest, most eclectic music found anywhere. Believed to be the only all-volunteer, commercial-free, entirely independent community radio station in New Hampshire, NCCR, which has its studio at Mount Eustis Commons, broadcasts 24/7 as WZNC-LP 99.9FM from the top of the Colonial Theatre in Bethlehem. The signal reaches listeners within a 10- to 15-mile radius of Franconia Notch. The programming is also streamed online via TuneIn. Now five years old, NCCR was founded in February 2012 by Nate Alberts.

North Country: Let’s Put On A Radio Station
It would be an understatement to call the studio of North Country Community Radio modest. There’s a single microphone and a hand-me-down control board with dozens of levers and switches. There’s a flowered couch, a row of vinyl records. Some eight-track tapes. A well-thumbed copy of “The Radio Amateur’s Handbook.” And behind it all is this guy, Nate Alberts.
