WHEB (100.3 FM) is a radio station licensed to Portsmouth, New Hampshire, USA. The station serves the Portsmouth, New Hampshire area broadcasting an active rock format. The station is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc..[2] WHEB once had a sister station broadcasting on AM 750, also using the WHEB call letters, but it went off the air in 1991. Currently, a commercial-free 80's Pop format airs over WHEB-HD2 (probably originating from the iHeart80s feed of iHeartMedia, Inc., yet branded as "Cosmo Radio" retained from a now-defunct programming service that was probably formerly offered on WHEB-HD2). A similar commercial-free 80's Pop format (although, entirely-unbranded) airs over WSRS-HD2 in Worcester, Massachusetts.
