Transmitting from a 200-foot tower in
North Canton,
Grace Radio's signal is strong throughout Canton and can be heard by most of Cherokee
County, with possible interference in the fringe areas. Nearly 80,000
people live, work, or drive in our coverage area.

Reception
of Grace 103.7 -
Signal strength is determined by your
distance from North Canton, type radio used,
terrain and weather
conditions. It varies from day-to-day and community to
community.
Automobile Reception
-
Most car radios are better than home receivers; the motion of a car tends to
"smooth out" the signal. With a good car radio, WPCG-LP can be
heard as far away as the Cobb
and Pickens county lines on I-575 (and to Milton on 140), with significant
interference from other stations .
Home Reception
- Home FM radio receivers vary greatly in
quality. All require an antenna; the simplest is a wire attached to the
back of the radio. Improved reception can be achieved by attaching a TV
"rabbit ears" antenna. The location of the antenna is critical;
moving the antenna a few inches can be important. A good radio located
near a second-story window provides far superior reception to a
"boom-box" in a basement room.
The "ultimate" antenna is one located
in your attic or on your roof. It can be purchased from an electronics
store such as Radio Shack.
