About WBBR 1130 Bloomberg Radio New York
WBBR 1130 is Bloomberg Radio's flagship station in New York City. It broadcasts a 24-hour schedule of business, financial and general news, covering markets, economics, companies, politics and technology, with live market updates and interviews with executives, analysts and policy makers.
The station is a 50,000-watt clear-channel AM outlet at 1130 kHz, owned by Bloomberg L.P., which has used the WBBR call letters since 1992. Its programming is in English and is aimed at investors, finance professionals and anyone who follows the business world. Bloomberg Radio programming is also carried on other stations and platforms beyond New York.
Expect a news-driven sound with frequent headline bulletins, market reports and talk programmes rather than music. This stream carries the station in AAC+ format at a low bitrate of about 32 kbps, which keeps it light for mobile and slower connections while remaining clear for spoken-word content. It is a good choice for following the New York trading day.
