WSWI on FM

In 2010, WSWI and WPSR, a local, non-profit station like that of WSWI, teamed up to provide The Spin Radio with an FM signal on HD2. Because of the team up, WSWI can now be heard on AM 820 and 90.7 FM HD2. However, in order to listen to The Spin Radio on HD2, an HD radio must be purchased.
On June 27, 2016 WSWI began simulcasting on FM translator W239CI 95.7 FM Evansville, rebranding as "95.7 The Spin".
