WBBM Newsradio Bows on FM

For over 20 years, I have been a consistent listener of WBBM - AM, currently Chicago's only all - news radio station. They bowed on the FM dial on Monday (they also still broadcast on AM).

Though I have enjoyed listening to the station, it often has been a challenge to tune - in because of annoying static. No matter how I positioned the antenna, the signal was always disrupted by competing radio stations broadcasting on the same frequency. With its debut on the FM dial this week, WBBM is as clear as a bell! Felicia Middlebrooks (morning anchor) never sounded so crisp. Imagine listening to Bears games this coming season!

Tune in to the new WBBM - FM, at 105.9.
