WTRI (1520 kHz) is a silent commercial AM radio station licensed to Brunswick, Maryland, serving Southern Frederick County, Maryland and Northern Loudoun County, Virginia. WTRI is owned by Hasmukh Shah and last aired a South Asian format of Bollywood music and talk in Hindi and Punjabi.
WTRI is a daytimer, required to go off the air at sunset because AM 1520 is a clear channel frequency, reserved for Class A WWKB in Buffalo, New York, and KOKC in Oklahoma City.
WTRI's tower and studio were formerly located off of 13th Avenue in Brunswick. It has been silent since September 22, 2023, after that land was sold to the city government to expand a neighboring park. Pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, its license will be canceled after one year if it does not resume operations. Programming was also heard on an FM translator station, 101.7 W269DH in Leesburg, Virginia.
