BENNINGTON â The WBTN-1370 AM radio station is now an FM station, too.
The station, which is owned by nonprofit Shires Media Partnership and based at 407 Harwood Hill Road in Bennington, began broadcasting on the 96.5 FM band in late May.
The FM channel launch follows a change in the nonprofitâs board composition and programming. The station adopted new taglines, âWe Bring The Noise,â a play on its call letters, and âSouthern Vermontâs Premier Rock Station,â and increased its focus on rock-and-roll music.
Board secretary and program director Jason Lillie credited the community for responding âin full forceâ to help the organization meet a June deadline for a permit related to the FM transmitter. L&G Fabricators, of Bennington, helped to build a base for a new tower.
