North Carolina State Line - 2011.


WBHN: WBHN Radio 1590 Bryson City came on the air in the fall of 1967 as "The Voice of the Great Smokies" with a country format. Later offering classic rock. The station was off the air for a period of time due to financial problems. A group of Bryson City citizens stepped in to save the station which now broadcasts a Christian and Southern Gospel format. Studios and transmitter are located at 75 Winding Way in Bryson City as seen in these photos from 2011. J.B. Jacobs is pictured at the control board. J.B. was kind enough to spend some time telling me about the station and its long history. He even let me sit in at the controls. The transmitter is located in the same room as the main studio. The tower is located adjacent to the building.
