A noteworthy fact about this station is that it features an "oldies/classic hits" (predominantly 1970s music) show on Sunday mornings, which is becoming considerably rare for AC stations. From 8 AM-12 noon on Sundays, the station broadcasts Dick Bartley's syndicated program "The Classic Countdown".
The station also broadcasts hourly news from ABC, as well as local high school sports (usually football and basketball) of schools in the Twin/Tri Valley League as well as the Mid Penn conference.
