WVBI gets approval to increase power...
Our application with the FCC for more power for WVBI has been approved! Hopefully before summer, WVBI will increase power from 43 watts to 3,000 watts and will provide "listen inside" coverage to just about every location on the island. It will also move down the FM dial from 100.1 to 91.9. We'll keep you up to date on when changes will happen and look forward to bringing you and even stronger Voice of Beaver Island.
