What WXTU(92.5) does

WXTU (92.5 XTU) is a Philadelphia-market FM radio station operating under the Beasley Media Group, LLC corporate umbrella and broadcasting on the 92.5 MHz frequency. Founded in 1983 and headquartered in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, the station functions as Philadelphia's only dedicated country-music radio format, delivering music programming, local news, traffic, weather, and community event coverage to the Philadelphia metropolitan area, the Delaware Valley, and South Jersey.

The core product is the over-the-air FM broadcast signal, which is augmented by a multi-channel digital distribution footprint: live streaming via the 925xtu.com website, native listening applications on iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play), and an owned email channel (XTU Nation Insider newsletter). Content IP extends beyond on-air programming into an annual flagship live event — the XTU Anniversary Show at Freedom Mortgage Pavilion — as well as the Andie Summers morning show with an embedded Andie's Book Club segment, the Backstage Country artist-interview podcast, the NuTune Country programming block, and a branded merchandise line sold through a dedicated XTU Merch store.

WXTU's business model is advertiser-funded: listening is free to consumers, and revenue is generated through local and national radio advertising, event sponsorships (including coverage partnerships with the Wawa Welcome America festival), and direct-to-consumer merchandise sales. The company is privately held and operates as a single station within the broader Beasley Media Group portfolio, with a headcount range of 11–50 employees supporting on-air talent, digital programming, sales, and event production.
