Cove Enterprise Broadcasting Company is a family-owned and operated radio broadcasting company based in Williamsburg, Pennsylvania. Since 2001, founders Lee and Carol Wastler have been dedicated to delivering dynamic radio content, community-centered programming, and a love for music to listeners in Central Pennsylvania and beyond.
We proudly own and operate two unique radio stations that each bring their own sound and spirit to the airwaves:
Location: Roaring Spring, PA
WKRD is where rock lives. From timeless classics to high-octane hits, this station delivers non-stop rock and roll energy. Rooted in the heart of Roaring Spring, we keep the volume up and the spirit of rock alive — 24/7.
Location: Pittsburgh, PA
WKRC is your home for today's best country and the legends that shaped the genre. Whether you're in the mood for modern hits or old-school country storytelling, this station brings the honky-tonk heartbeat of America right to Pittsburgh.
At Cove Enterprise Broadcasting, we believe in doing things the right way. That’s why we are fully licensed to broadcast in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Mexico through leading performance rights and broadcast regulatory agencies. These include:
ASCAP
BMI
SESAC
GMR (Global Music Rights)
AllTrack
SOMEXFON (Mexico)
EMMAC/SACM (Mexico)
SOCAN (Canada)
Re:Sound (Canada)
PPL (UK)
PRS for Music (UK)
FCC (Federal Communications Commission – USA)
These licenses ensure that artists are properly credited and compensated, and that our broadcasts meet professional legal and ethical standards, whether on FM airwaves or online streaming platforms.
Our brand is more than sound — it’s also symbols that tell a story. You may notice three key figures across our branding and station identities: the Pirate, the Red Dragon, and the Horse. Each one has deep roots in our local identity and radio spirit:
🏴☠️ The Pirate
A nod to Williamsburg, PA, and its school district, the pirate honors the Blue Pirate mascot — a symbol of local pride, resilience, and community tradition.
🐉 The Red Dragon
Representing Spring Cove School District, the Scarlet Dragon stands tall for strength, creativity, and the fire of our hometown spirit in Roaring Spring.
🐎 The Horse
Nothing says country like a horse and cowboy. The horse symbolizes the heart of country music — freedom, grit, open roads, and down-home storytelling. It’s a perfect match for WKRC’s country roots.
These icons are more than logos. They’re reminders that even as we grow and reach global audiences, our heart is right here in the Cove.

We’re proudly called “The Cove” because we broadcast from the heart of Morrisons Cove—an expansive limestone valley nestled in Blair and Bedford counties of central Pennsylvania. This fertile, nearly enclosed region—about 8–15 miles wide and stretching roughly 39 miles—has long been known locally simply as “The Cove” or even “The Great Cove,” reflecting its distinctive geography and rich agricultural heritage, By embracing that name, we honor our community’s history, the natural beauty of the surrounding ridges, and our roots as part of this close‑knit region. We’re not just a station in the Cove—we’re the station of the Cove.
Headquartered in Williamsburg, PA, with studio locations in Roaring Spring (WKRD) and Pittsburgh (WKRC), Cove Enterprise Broadcasting Company blends small-town values with a professional, far-reaching voice. We support our communities and partnerships with area businesses, nonprofits, and events.
Whether you're cranking up the rock or kicking back with some country, we’re proud to bring you content with character, integrity, and hometown heart — since 2001.
Thanks for listening. You’re part of the Cove family now.
