You can hear WEBR on Cox Cable of Fairfax, VA and Comcast Cable of Reston, VA. You HEAR our radio station and you SEE a community bulletin board. On Cox Cable, we can be found on digital cable channel 37, basic cable channel 7. On Comcast Cable, we are on channel 27.

You will hear music of all types, and on formats from vinyl to CD to digitized computer. You will hear hosts talking about their interests, their hobbies, & their views. You may hear something you don't agree with. You may hear something that offends you. You may hear rare songs not available in the US. You may hear songs you haven't heard since you were a child. You may hear a whole album from beginning to end. Our overnight programming provides a different genre of music each day of the week. We utilize the power of free speech and guarantee you won't find a mix like this anywhere else.

We welcome radio enthusiasts of all types! Some of our producers have professional radio experience, others do not. You do not need an FCC license to start a show. The first step is to attend an orientation. The next step is to take the Radio Production course that will certify you to use our equipment. Once you complete the 6-week class, turn in a program proposal form and we will work with you on finding a suitable timeslot. Shows are aired in 1or 2 hours blocks per week. Shows may be done pre-recorded or live. As long as you abide by FCC & Virginia laws on obscenity, libel & slander, and follow FPA's policies, the content of your show is completely up to you.

Sure! Take a look through the shows and decide if you would like to direct your music to a particular producer or show. If not, then we will direct it for you. We can't guarantee that it will be played, but all new music makes it's way to the air studio. Currently, we are not reporting to the trades and may not be able to provide you with tracking info. Some of our shows do feature a variety of independent & local artists. If you will be in the DC area, contact us about possible studio interviews. Check out the contact section for our mailing address.

It's hard to say. We have the potential to reach almost a million residents in the Northern Virginia suburbs of DC through cable. We can be found in over 275,000 households in the region. We cannot participate in Arbitron or Nielsen ratings, so we rely on feedback from listeners & identification in the community. We can tell you this: WEBR is considered a narrowcast channel. At any given time, 4-5% of the actual viewing/listening audience is tuning in to a narrowcast channel.

Click on the "Listen Now" icon above. A new page will appear that takes you to our stream page on SWCast.net. You'll see three choices for listening. Choose the icon of the player you have installed on your computer: either WinAmp, RealPlayer or
Windows Media Player. Clicking on one of those icons will launch the live webcast. If you get a white page that says "Channel Not Found," then our streaming provider is doing service upgrades and the webcast will hopefully resume within the hour.

We have joined the cooperative at SWCast to keep our royalties lower and support independent webcasters. Because the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and subsequent CARP panels have determined that even small, non-profit stations like us should pay exhorbitant fees & keep extensive records, this is the ony way we can afford to provide our radio station online.

Mostly from 8am - Midnight EST. Overnights
and empty timeslots are filled in with music
from local artists like Glass & Apples, Soulscript and Breaking Ground.
