📖 About

Bott Radio Network (WCRV 640 AM) is a prominent Christian talk and teaching radio station licensed to Collierville, Tennessee, and serving the greater Memphis metropolitan area and the broader Mid-South region. Originally launched on October 1, 1966, under the call sign WPIP, the station spent its early years operating on different frequencies with various formats, including country music and full-time gospel under previous call letters like WMSO. It was acquired by the Bott Broadcasting Company in 1986, changing its call sign to WCRV and pivoting to its enduring Christian talk format. The station's daily programming features continuous, high-quality Christian broadcasting, Bible teaching, and faith-based news programs. Listeners tuning into WCRV regularly hear nationally recognized ministry programs such as 'Focus on the Family,' 'Insight for Living' with Chuck Swindoll, 'Family Talk' with James Dobson, 'Turning Point' with Dr. David Jeremiah, and 'The Alternative' with Tony Evans. These broadcasts are specifically chosen to provide sound biblical instruction, family guidance, and current events viewed from a Christian perspective, catering to a deeply devoted audience of believers across Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas. Owned and operated by Bott Broadcasting Company/Tennessee, WCRV broadcasts with a powerful 50,000 watts during the day, ensuring extensive regional coverage. The station also utilizes FM translators (such as 93.7 FM in Memphis) to enhance clarity and reach across mobile and local receivers. Through its robust terrestrial signals, global online streaming options, and mobile applications, Bott Radio Network continues to serve as an indispensable voice for Christian education and spiritual growth throughout the region.
