Posted rules / notesNo submission page is posted; [contact on your sheet] is the station's own general address, listed on its Contact Us page for general inquiries, press and volunteering. Mostly NPR and BBC news and talk, but First State Mixtape runs two hours with host Wendy Rollins on Mondays at 9pm and Saturdays at 8pm playing latest releases, 80s new wave, early 90s alternative and 70s classic rock, and Arts Playlist features Delaware musicians.

What to send WDDE
WDDE takes music by email, which means your subject line is doing real work. Make it obvious what the message is before it's opened: genre, artist, track, and the word clean if it applies.
Send the clean edit if you have one. WDDE is FCC-bound during the day like nearly every station on this list, and a clean version simply gets played more often.
WAV is safest, 320 kbps MP3 is the floor. Anything below that gets noticed quickly on a broadcast chain.
WDDE is volunteer-run. The person reading your email is doing it for love of the music, so be brief, be human, and follow up once at most.
Then wait. Give it about two weeks, send one polite follow-up, and let it go after that. Music directors remember the artists who were easy to deal with.

What kind of music does WDDE play?

Where is WDDE located?
WDDE broadcasts on 91.1 FM from Dover, Delaware. It is a community station.
Every door is on your sheet.
Pick your sound and region on Rotation and each of these stations shows its real submission contact and the exact rules it posts: clean edit, WAV, form or mail. Checked by hand and kept current. No station here paid to be listed.
Radio is the free half, and it stays that way. Every station here is free to reach and no station ever pays to be listed. The Doors is the other half: 100 verified places that are not radio, sync libraries, music supervisors, festivals, contests, live sessions and the music press, 43 of which can actually pay an artist. It also lists the 162 we opened and refused, with the reason each one failed, because most lists of this kind are stale and the rejections are the part nobody else will show you. $9.99, the 2026 Q3 edition →
How they take music → Web form · Genre directors are listed by style and the page says email is the best way to reach them, since they do not generally keep office hours. Promotional CDs go to WVUD, Perkins Student Center, [address on your sheet], Newark and nowhere else: it is against station policy for a music contact to receive material at any other address

How they take music → Mail · No submission page, no form and no station email are posted, and the Make A Song Request page is empty, so the published route is the studio address on the station's own page. Mail a CD to WMPH 91.7, Mount Pleasant High School, [address on your sheet] Ext, Wilmington,, or call the studio on [phone on your sheet].

How they take music → See sheet · Real student run station but no door is published anywhere. The old station site [link on your sheet] no longer resolves, the Thomas McKean High School site has no radio page, and the only WMHS item on the district site is an FCC transfer of control notice. The one address on record is a named individual's in the FCC public file, so there is nothing to send to. Licensed to the Red Clay Consolidated School District, run by Thomas McKean High School students on a variety format with a student morning show from 8am to 9am and Delaware Public Media drive-time news.
