Pirate Radio 1250

Pirate Radio 930 was a short-lived AM radio station branding in the United States, based in the Buffalo, New York, area. Its call sign was WBEN (AM), and it adopted the "Pirate Radio" branding in the early 1990s to feature a rock-oriented format, mimicking the rebellious style of pirate radio stations. The station shifted away from the branding and format after a brief period, returning to its more traditional news/talk programming. The "Pirate Radio" branding was part of a broader trend in the early 1990s where some stations experimented with edgier music and marketing styles.
