WTKW (99.5FM "TK99") is aclassic rock radio station inBridgeport, New York. The station broadcasts to theSyracuse, New York market.
WTKW was launched in 1992 as acountry music station under the leadership of Bob Paris (real name Gary W. Gallup), a longtime disc jockey in Syracuse.[3] It was changed to its current classic rock format in 1993 when Classic Rock 104.3 KIX-FM (WKFM, nowWFRG-FM) became country-formatted Big Frog 104 and the Syracuse radio market was left without a classic rock radio station. The station also simulcasts on full-power satelliteWTKV (105.5 FM) inMinetto, New York (servingOswego) and low-power translatorW256AC (99.1 FM) for Downtown Syracuse.
In April 2007, WTKW/WTKV became the flagship station ofSyracuse Universityathletics with play-by-play coverage of Men's Football, Men's Basketball and Men's Lacrosse games.
