By day, WSYW is powered at 250 watts non-directional. Because 810 AM is a clear-channel frequency, on which KGO San Francisco and WGY Schenectady share Class A status, WSYW's AM transmitter must sign off at night to avoid interference. Programming is heard around the clock on 250 watt FM translator W232DM at 94.3 MHz.
On May 15, 1963, the station signed on as WIGO. Luke Walton was owner and general manager with George L. Davis as one of the disc jockeys. Studios were in the basement level of office building at 143 Delaware St.
In 1966, station was sold to Sarkes Tarzian, who changed the format to a home grown easy listening format and the new call sign WATI.
