KBRC (1430 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Mount Vernon, Washington, and serving Skagit County. It airs a classic rock radio format and is owned by John and Julia Di Meo. The studios and offices are on Freeway Drive in Mount Vernon.

By day, KBRC is powered at 5,000 watts non-directional. But to protect other stations on 1430 AM from interference at night, it reduces power to 1,000 watts and uses a directional antenna with a two-tower array.[2] Programming is also heard on 250-watt FM translator K275CV at 102.9 MHz.
