A new "Farm" in Youngstown, Ohio

WRTK

WRTK (1540) buyer Chris Lash says “my family are all farmers in and around Pittsburgh, so the format and name came from my many days working alongside my cousins and uncles, while listening to the radio in the barn.” The new format for WRTK, Niles, OH is classic country, under an LMA that begins today ahead of Lash and his wife Kathy acquiring WRTK and WANR (1570) from Beacon Broadcasting. The two stations had been simulcasting a Fox Sports Radio-based format, and WANR continues in that vein. Lash is handling GM duties for the stations and mornings at WRTK. The new “Farm” is already streaming online, continuing after the daytime-only WRTK must sign off. The stream is here.
