WPYB


WPYB is a radio station in Benson, North Carolina—a small town between Raleigh and Fayetteville—that has a classic country music format.
WPYB was the first station that was owned by George G. Beasley, the founder of Beasley [Broadcast Group]. Beasley founded the station to cater to the black community in the Benson area, inspired by his commitment to provide a "voice for the voiceless" in his local community.
WPYB operates only during daylight hours to accommodate the signal of WBBR in New [York City].
According to a listing in the SRDS Radio Advertising Source, Spring/Summer 2007, WPYB billed itself as "the best little station in the nation".
On April 29, 2021, WPYB was sold to McLamb Broadcasting for US$190,000.
