FAQ's

Why is the top of the hour time tone off by 8 seconds?

WCBS now broadcasts in high definition.  It takes 8 seconds for HD to encode and then decode at a HD receiver.  Consquently, the regular analog signal must be delayed 8 seconds in order for the broadcasts to synch.  Also, it is not as simple as starting the time tone 8 seconds earlier to make it hit the airwave "on time."  The issue is much more complex.  However, WCBS is working to find a solution as HD radio becomes more mainstream.  For more information on HD radio, visit www.hdradio.com .

Why can't the Yankees games be heard online?

Major League Baseball (MLB) does not allow local radio stations to stream the games online.  Instead, you must visit www.mlb.com and pay the subscription fee to hear/view the games through their website.  Instead, WCBS continues live news coverage online during the Yankees games.
