So, WAPJ is that station in Litchfield...right?

For any number of reasons you may be unfamiliar with WAPJ 89.9 & 105.1 FM. Perhaps you're new to the area or just simply never tuned in or weren't even aware of the station's existence- until recently. After being with the station since it's inception, I am surprised some 11 years later how many people in the Torrington area still aren't aware of WAPJ or never listen. (And there are some who confuse us with a certain station located in Litchfield...sigh.) There a number of reasons for not listening. Many find our eclectic programming is simply not their cup of tea and would rather listen to a station which plays a particular format. In fact, most of our listeners only tune in to hear a certain program or programs during the week. And that's fine.

We'll never compete with the A/C format stations or the ones which focus on Top 40, pop, alternative rock, classic rock, etc. That's just not who we are though we do include these and numerous other musical styles in our programming. What we do have is a group of dedicated staff who know their stuff, such as Brian Lillie with "Pickin' and Fiddlin'" (bluegrass) heard on Wednesdays from 7:00-9:00PM or "Celtic World" with Pamela and Tony Henry which can be heard on Thursdays from 8:00-9:00PM and Fridays from 10:00-11:00AM (rebroadcast).

And there are many, many other shows to choose from with more being added. We also provide play-by-play of Torrington High School boys basketball (courtesy of Luke Hutchinson and TJ Burlee) as well as comprehensive coverage of local elections. So go ahead and take a look at our schedule. There's a link to it right on this page. You're bound to find at least one show you'll like.
