WKRB(90.3 MHz) is an FM station based in New York City, New York. It is a music based station based at and controlled by Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn. It also is the official station of the Brooklyn Cyclones, and all games are broadcast by Warner Fusselle. In 2006, WKRB changed its frequency from 90.9 MHz to 90.3 MHz, but kept its call letters.
"Golden Days"
Through a series of miscommuncations, the frequency at one point in the early 1980's was 103 FM. The challenge was that this is the commercial station area of the dial, which eventually lead back to the station returning to 90.9 FM. While at 103, the on-air talent was most competitive to even commercial stations. Such personalities included William McFarlane (who was eventually on Z100 in New York before his early death), Vinny "The King" Soriano, who was a program director during this period, Lenny Green (now on KISS-FM), and others. The jingles used were from the same company that many commercial stations used. All this contributed to such a sound that it was hard to determine that it was actually college radio.
