To our Chambersburg listeners — thank you for your patience as we perform tower maintenance on the transmitters in your area.

While we do not know when the work will conclude, we recommend downloading the WITF app to stream your favorite programs live and on demand.

Due to tower maintenance, WYPM and WITF's Chambersburg signals may be operating at reduced power or temporarily unavailable.

Today is a great day for local journalism. Under a historic agreement designed to ensure local journalism continues to thrive in Lancaster, Pennon, our parent company and current owner of LNP | LancasterOnline, will gift the news organization’s assets to a newly formed nonprofit.

[David Greene @fearless_greene]

For the first time in 231 years, @LancasterOnline, the paper I grew up reading, will become a nonprofit newspaper. This is huge news.
We are going to innovate, rebuild trust in the media & create a model to support local journalism. Thank you, @WITF Pennon, for your partnership.
