WNBH (1340 AM) is a New Bedford, Massachusetts radio station, owned by Hall Communications and currently broadcasting a classic hits format. The station's branding refers to its FM translator station, W267CY.[3] The station is also carried on the HD2 sub-channel of sister station WCTK.[4]

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) records list WNBH's first license date as January 9, 1924.[5] However, the station has generally traced its founding to May 1921, when one of WNBH's original owners, Irving Vermilya, began making broadcasts over an amateur radio station.
