🗣 🤷 🚨
Throughout parts of May and June, WPRB’s broadcast tower will undergo essential maintenance. This will require us to periodically suspend our weekday FM broadcasts. Regular programming will continue on our webstreams at listen.wprb.com. We hope you'll join us there if you turn on 103.3 FM and don't hear our broadcast. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we’ll post updates at wprb.com as the work progresses. Thanks for your patience, and long live freeform radio!
