Shared-Time Radio in 2021

Here’s a few of em.
WFDU-WNYU 89.1
KDEC-KWLC 1240 AM
KOOP-KVRX 91.7 FM
WPOB-WKWZ 88.5 FM
 
WFDU-WNYU are the only stations I physically tuned in to on that list when I filmed the bandscan in NYC and SW Connecticut and by DX in central CT in 2019 when it's WNYU.
 
There’s also WXUT (University of Toledo) and WXTS (Toledo Public Schools) in Toledo, Ohio; the former cedes airtime to the latter during the school year.

It’s also a fairly new arrangement, c. 1988?

Do they share the same tower/transmitter? Just curious. (If they don't, I would hope that they allow the other to use their transmission site should there be an issue.)
 
There are several LPFM stations that time share frequencies. Philadelphia has, I think, 3 or 4 stations sharing one frequency. A Los Angeles frequency is slpit among, I think, 5 Low Power FM stations. Low Power FMs are 100 watt non-commercial FM stations assigned to non-profit organizations.
 
KTUP and KMWV licensed to Dallas, Oregon share a Class C3 facility on 98.3 . Both NCEs broadcast on an NCE-reserved channel, KTUP broadcasts in Spanish from 10am-6pm while KMWV transmits in English during the other hours.

KTUP streams, KMWV does not yet...

They don't share the same location as of 2021.
 
KMWV/KTUP will co-locate offices under the same roof, albeit with separate studios later this year at CCTVSalem. Already, the transmitter site is fully shared, not like the days of WIBW and KSAC/KKSU when you could hear the switching of sites between Topeka and Manhattan, Kansas.

No, the two transmitters are on opposite sides of the Hudson River. WNYU broadcasts on 89.1 weekdays from 4:00 pm to 1:00 am from its transmitter in the Bronx, and WFDU broadcasts on 89.1 during the remaining hours from its transmitter near the northeastern corner of New Jersey.
 
WOZO-LP and WOZW-LP technically share 103.9 in Knoxville TN (there was a 3rd entity originally) but operate as one radio station
