WYPC (1330 AM) is a radio station broadcasting an oldies format. Licensed to Wellston, Ohio, United States. The station serves the Wellston/Jackson area, is currently owned by Total Media Group, Inc., the owner of the station since 1970, and features programming from Fox News Radio.[2][3]
History
[edit]The station went on the air in 1953, as WKOV at 1570 kilohertz. The station moved to 1330 kHz by 1958. An FM station, WKOV-FM, was added in 1971. WKOV-AM featured a full-service adult contemporary/MOR format until 1991, when the call letters changed to WYPC-AM, and the station switched to country music, with the AC format moving to WKOV-FM (which had programmed beautiful music). WYPC-AM adopted an adult standards music format in the mid-1990s. WYPC-AM changed its format from Adult Standards to Sports Talk in August 2012.[4] In July 2026, WYPC-AM (and it's FM translator, 105.3 FM) changed formats, switching from Sports Talk to an Oldies format called "Southern Ohio Gold", with music from the 1950s to the 1980s.
