In addition to a standard analog transmission, WXGT is relayed over low-power analog Columbus translator W225CS (92.9 FM), as well as WQCD (1550 AM) in Delaware, Ohio; WQCD also operates its own translator, W225CM (92.9 FM). As WXGT and WQCD's translators are both on the 92.9 frequency, the stations collectively brand as "My 92.9". WXGT is also available online.
