One of the most exciting new things on the Round Lake Area horizon is RONDARADIO a low frequency radio station that has been on the drawing board for years and is in its final stages prior to going live and on the air. I must also point out that I was able to assist in the fundraising by securing a $30,000 grant from Lakewood Homes for some of the major startup costs two years ago.
This is such a good idea, I wish I had thought of it, but I didn't! Round Lake resident Bish Krywko did along with his wife Fran and the energy and drive to get the radio station to this point are all down to their vision.
RONDARADIO is a community-based radio station that will be run by volunteer community members and students from
The station will operate on the frequency of 98.3 FM, broadcasting at 100 watts of power.
The Village of Round Lake Heights is home to the WRLR Studios and our 130' broadcast tower. The signal will radiate out to an area 3.5 to 5 miles in diameter from the antenna and most likely will extend even further, 7 to 10 miles out.
The stations 100 watt signal will reach a potential 90,000 plus residents living in the greater Round Lake area including all the Round Lake villages, Hainesville, Lake Villa, Grayslake, Lindenhurst, Ingleside, Long Lake, Fox Lake, Antioch, unincorporated Lake County and many others
