WBSD-FM,
whose tagline is
"Great Rock, Real Variety, 89 BSD"
is a 50 Watt radio station transmitting from the
former Burlington High School (now Karcher Middle
School) with studios located in the new Burlington
High School in Burlington, Wisconsin.
The station broadcasts a "AAA" format and is on the air 24 hours a day, seven days a week. WBSD also carries live play-by-play broadcasts of Burlington High School sporting events. It is owned by the Burlington School District from which its call sign is derived.
WBSD recently celebrated its 32nd anniversary under the direction of Terry Havel. Havel was the founder of the station which was originally broadcast from a small storage room in the former Burlington High School and limited to closed circut within the school. Today, WBSD has a broadcast radius of approximately 25 miles and can be heard worldwide via the internet.
Burlington High School has a Broadcasting 1 class that allows students to earn their FCC license and their first chance of being on the air, a Broadcasting 2 class giving students experience in recording and producing radio shows, and a Broadcast Seminar class that puts students in charge of day to day operation of WBSD, even if the station has difficulty covering the whole school district with it's broadcast signal.
