I’ve often dreamed of a college radio map, so I absolutely love the radio visualizations crafted by Erin Davis. While it’s not a pragmatic guide to find radio stations, her beautiful service contour maps give a general sense of how certain formats of FM radio are dispersed across the continental United States. The college radio map depicts FCC-licensed radio stations that are categorized on Radio-Locator as “college radio” format. While it won’t capture every college radio station, it gives an interesting slice. Her map shows a higher concentration of the college radio format on the East Coast, something that I’d always suspected as well.
