WETB (790 AM) is a commercial radio station broadcasting a classic hits format as 93.7 Goat FM. It is licensed to Johnson City, Tennessee, and serves the Tri-Cities area. It is owned by Kenneth C. Hill with studios on Brandonwood Drive in Johnson City. On weekends, WETB carries classic episodes of Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 from the 1980s and 90s. On Sundays, much of the programming is Christian radio.
By day, WETB is powered at 5,000 watts non-directional. But at night, to prevent interference to other stations on 790 AM, it must greatly reduce power to 72 watts. For most of WETB's early history, it was a daytimer, required to go off the air at night.[1] The transmitter is on Brandonwood Drive, near the station's studios.[2] Programming is also heard on 250-watt FM translator W229DH at 93.7 MHz.[3]
