1400 
WKBI PA Saint Marys
Sunday March 31– 0000-0300 EDT (TOH only; late Saturday 
night / early Sunday morning).
Testing with its regular full-time 1,000-watt 
non-directional power and pattern. Plans to run 60-second Morse code and sweep 
tones at the top of each hour only. Otherwise, look for a format that’s referred 
to on-air as America’s Best Music – music technically thought of as Adult 
Standards but to the non-radio person more like soft oldies.
WKBI is located 
100 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, 60 miles northwest of State College, and 90 
miles southeast of Erie.
Arranged by Paul Walker
QSL: No e-mail reports 
accepted. Reports should be sent by regular postal mail only, accompanied by 
SASE. Audio clips welcome on CD or mp3/wav files on USB/thumb/jump drive. Please 
do not send cassette tapes. Reports must include 
written or printed information with the listener's location, equipment used, and 
details about content heard. Please note that audio 
materials will not be returned.
