WPTT (1360) is a Talk Radio Station that serves the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania market. Owned by Renda Broadcasting , the station operates at 1360 KHz with a power of 5,000 watts daytime, 1,000 watts nighttime, and is licensed to McKeesport, Pennsylvania . The station is currently in the process of switching frequencies with WAVL-AM , going from AM 1360 to the stronger AM 910. This is expected to be finished sometime in 2006. HISTORY The station began with the call letters WMCK, and was a Top 40 station with the Call Letters WIXZ ("Wick-zee 1360") beginning in 1969 . Hampered as a suburban station with a limited nighttime signal, it would later go through different formats and owners before switching to its current format in 1999 , at which time the WPTT call letters (formerly on channel 22 in Pittsburgh) were adopted. In all of its incarnations since WMCK, the radio station has positioned itself as a Pittsburgh outlet, rather than directly addressing the suburb of McKeesport. PROGRAM CONTENT The programming on WPTT consists of local (Pittsburgh) and nationally syndicated talk shows. A variety of shows are featured including those on the left and right of the American political spectrum, as well as shows that are primarily non-political in nature. EXTERNAL LINKS
