WRR (101.1 MHz) is a listener-supported, non-commercial FM radio station in Dallas, Texas, United States, which provides a full-time classical music radio format. While the station is municipally-owned by the City of Dallas, it is operated by North Texas Public Broadcasting, the owner of NPR member KERA (90.1 FM), adult album alternative station KKXT (91.7 FM), and PBS member KERA-TV (channel 13). WRR's studios are in the Fair Park complex in South Dallas.
WRR is a Class C station. It has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 100,000 watts, and transmits an HD Radio signal. The station's transmitter is located on West Belt Line Road in Cedar Hill.
Over the years, private broadcasters in the Dallas–Fort Worth radio market have made numerous but unsuccessful calls for privatizing the station. In January 2023, it transitioned from a commercial radio station to non-profit and listener-supported.
