WEW 770 AM

WEW is the oldest broadcast station west of the Mississippi River, and claims to be the second oldest in the United States. In July, 2012 it was granted an FCC construction permit to raise its daytime power to 10,000 watts and introduce nighttime operation with 200 watts but still protecting clear-channel station WABC (AM) at New York City. WEW features a brokered ethnic format, except for a midday show which features easy listening Standards and big band music. WEW’s daily broadcast schedule consists largely of foreign language programming, mostly targeting area Mexicans and Bosnians, and weekend programming featuring Croatian, Polish, Italian and German.
