WPGC-FM (95.5 FM) is an urban-leaning rhythmic-formatted station, and one of the most popular among Washington, D.C.'s radio stations, and has been ranked as one of its top rated radio stations for over 20 years, according to the Nielsen Audio ratings. It has a city of license of Morningside (its studios are located in the Navy Yard neighborhood of Southeast D.C.) at the 95.5 MHz frequency on the FM dial. Its tower operates at an effective radiated power of 50 kilowatts (kW) and is located in Capitol Heights, Maryland. It also formerly shared the WPGC calls with sister station WPGC/1580, which once played urban gospel music (the AM station is now sports as WJFK). In 2005, WPGC began broadcasting in IBOC digital radio, using the HD Radio system from iBiquity.
WPGC is listed as a Rhythmic contemporary station according to Mediabase reports, because it primarily plays urban contemporary music, making WPGC-FM an urban-leaning rhythmic station (the other being KBFB in Dallas/ Fort Worth, Texas). In addition, WPGC-FM is the only rhythmic in the D.C./Balto. region targeted towards Baltimore listeners, putting competition up against WERQ, a Radio One-owned urban contemporary station and WZFT, a iHeartMedia owned contemporary hit radio station. It is the only CBS Radio rhythmic in the Eastern United States to use its calls as a branding on-air; while the other two— KSFM in Sacramento, California, KLUC-FM in Las Vegas, Nevada, are both in the Pacific Time Zone and Western United States. It was the only Rhythmic owned by CBS Radio that was not listed on the Nielsen BDS rhythmic panel, but that changed on June 13, 2012, when it moved WPGC to the Rhythmic panel from the R&B/Hip-Hop panel due to WPGC becoming more of a hit-driven Rhythmic Top 40 that is more in line with CBS Radio's Rhythmic outlets and to be more competitive with Top 40/CHR rival WIHT.
