The BBC owns radio stations and TV stations using the call letters "ZFB" and "'''ZBM'''". The ZBM callsign in particular is one of the oldest in Bermuda - this callsign has been used since 1953 for an AM radio station, since 1962 for an FM radio station, and was also used, beginning in 1958, for the first Bermudian television station, which gave Bermudians their own TV station for the first time after years of illegally watching a TV channel intended for American servicemen stationed at Kindley Field . ZFB was originally the callsign for the radio and TV stations of the Capital Broadcasting Company from 1965 to 1984. The BBC also owns a website at http://www.bermudabroadcasting.com/ , but lately the website has been down. RADIO ZFB radio is broadcast on 1230 kHz (. ZBM radio is broadcast on 1340 kHz (ERP: 1 kW) and (as FM89) on 89.1 MHz (ERP: 15 kW). While ZBM-AM is more of an adult contemporary station than anything else, FM89 is more of a news/talk station, with some music programming. TELEVISION
