WCDX (92.1 FM) is an urban contemporary formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Mechanicsville, Virginia, serving the Richmond/Petersburg area. WCDX is owned and operated by Urban One. The station's studios and offices are located just north of Richmond proper on Emerywood Parkway[1] in unincorporated Henrico County, and its transmitter is located separately a mile east of the studios.[2]
WCDX is licensed by the FCC to broadcast in the HD Radio format.[3] [4]
Juan Conde, who later became evening news anchor for local ABC affiliate WRIC-TV, was WCDX's morning man for most of the 1990s.
In addition to the main station, WCDX is relayed by an FM translator to widen its broadcast area. The translator was launched on November 17, 2015, and is primarily directed at the Petersburg area.
