dbo:abstract | - WILK (980 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. It is owned by Audacy, Inc. and airs a talk radio format. WILK is powered at 5,000 watts by day using a non-directional antenna. But to avoid interfering with other stations on AM 980 at night, it reduces power to 1,000 watts and uses a directional antenna with a three-tower array. The transmitter is off WVSA Drive in Wilkes-Barre. WILK is one of four simulcast radio stations in Northeastern Pennsylvania that call themselves WILK Newsradio, along with 103.1 WILK-FM in Avoca, 1300 WODS in West Hazleton and 910 WAAF in Scranton. Studios and offices are on Route 315 in Pittston. "WILK Newsradio" has a weekday schedule with mostly local hosts, except for the early afternoon when the station carries Rush Limbaugh. At night, the stations air nationally syndicated shows including Dave Ramsey, Coast to Coast AM with George Noory and America in The Morning. Weekends feature shows on money, health, technology and science. Weekend syndicated hosts include Kim Komando, Clark Howard, Dr. Michio Kaku and "Somewhere in Time" with Art Bell. Some hours on weekends are paid brokered programming. Most hours begin with world and national news from ABC News Radio. The stations also carries play-by-play sports including Penn State Nittany Lions football and basketball, as well as Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins minor league hockey. (en)
