WQBR (99.9/92.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Country/ Americana music format. Licensed to Avis, Pennsylvania, United States, the station serves the Williamsport/Lock Haven/State College area, airing over substantial areas of Clinton, Lycoming and Centre Counties in Central Pennsylvania. Before the State College Arbitron ratings no longer were unavailable, the Bear was the only station that showed in both books. The area between Williamsport and State College is the defining line between the influence of Pittsburgh to the west, and Philadelphia to the east; no station had ever bridged those markets.
The station is currently owned by Maximum Impact Communications, Inc. and features news programming from AP Radio, some satellite music programming from the Hot Country channel from Dial-Global Radio Network, and over 26 hours a week of local Americana music programming.
WQBR is the student radio station of Eastern Michigan University. Originally broadcasting via carrier current at 640 AM and receivable throughout EMU's campus (including the dorms), the signal has since switched to 610 AM, and can no longer be heard more than ten feet from the transmitter site in the Quirk Building. Now called "Eagle Radio," students can still receive the station on Eastern Michigan University Cable Channel 19 and on the Internet via live streaming at http://eagleradio.org/. WQBR airs from September through April, on a mixed schedule (usually 8:00 am to 10:00 pm [EST] weekdays throughout the school year) from studios located in Halle Library (former studios were in the Quirk Building).
