WBCQ airtime for sell  View Printable Version 
Saturday, May 14 2022

bclnews
WBCQ is now "open for business" on its 4790 frequency before 0200 UTC (before 10PM EDT) adjacent to the Radio Angela music/cultural programming. Time is also available on 6160 and 7490, and it is still hoped that music and cultural programs will gravitate towards 4790 while other spoken word content hosts will consider 6160 and 7490, although music is obviously not verboten on the other frequencies.   Serious inquiries can be directed to wbcq@wbcq.com
