WOEN (1360AM) is aradio station. Licensed toOlean, New York, United States, the station serves the Olean area. The station is owned by Seven Mountains Media.[2][3]
The station was formerly known asWMNS until ca. 2000 when the station changed to its current calls. For most of the mid-2000s until the end of 2011, WOEN was the Olean affiliate ofThe Rush Limbaugh Show; that show moved toWVTT in 2012. Among other affiliations the station carried were withABC Radio Networks'talk network, theCBS Radio Network, theWOR Radio Network, andTalk Radio Network. The station switched to the WGGO simulcast in September 2013 (at the time both carriedadult standards/oldies formats); in 2016, both stations flipped to talk, this time withSalem Radio Network providing the content. WOEN continued operating after WGGO was knocked off air in March 2017.
On March 21, 2018, shortly after WGGO returned to air (after a year of test programming it eventually took up the talk lineup and brought Limbaugh back), WOEN flipped from talk tocountry music, simulcastingWZKZ. The station also began broadcasting on translator W242CT at 96.3 MHz. WOEN was the only AM radio station in Waypoint Media's portfolio that ran a format other than its "The Patriot" conservative talk brand.
In early 2021, Waypoint spun off its New York radio stations to Seven Mountains Media, which had already purchased the other station groups in Olean. WOEN and WZKZ were originally intended to be retained in the sale, but in July, WZKZ was instead donated toFamily Life Network. As Seven Mountains already had a country outlet in Olean, the dominantWPIG, WOEN was takensilent, with the station returning to the air in September 2021 by simulcasting its longtime sister station WMXO. The simulcast switched toWQRS on December 1, 2021.[4]
