New dance station in Washington DC - Area 95.5

[nd2023]

95.5 WPGC-HD2 has flipped to dance as Area 95.5. Sounds exactly like Mix 106.5-HD2 used to.

I'm going to be driving from NJ to NC this weekend, so it's awesome that I can listen to this when stuck in DC's notorious traffic.

I'm enjoying this station. Thanks for the heads up!

Enjoyed this station when passing through DC, all the way from Laurel, MD to Triangle, VA solid for 50 miles. I think WPGC is running a higher HD power. It's a bit heavy on the pop side, and doesn't play much new dance music. One thing that sticks out is heavy rotation of Medina - You And I.

Looks like someone has stole my trademark.... Area 93 is your real EDM station .,

OK just so you know,, I wish the best for the station, Now that I think about it I think its cool that the Area brand is being used, and that I was one of the first to use it,,,, but I totally spaced out Area on XM... And for some reason KTCL Channel 93.3 in Denver,,,Has its website as Area 93.3... i did some research on that.

It actually was Sirius that made the phrase popular with Dance years ago

Regardless if it's pop heavy with dance remix singles...WPGC HD2 is going to have a major following. It may overtake its Urban HD1 in the ratings.

Open for discussion.

It will not. There simply aren't enough HD radios out there. That's a failure of HD radio, not the dance format.
