WNEW Calls back to NYC on 102.7?

[XCountry285]

I read somewhere that this was the case for the call letters anyone else hear of this?

 

[Bob1370]

Why would they?

 

[pjc1961]

The WNEW calls are currently on the DC area's 99.1 WNEW-FM Bowie, MD all-news outlet and on the DC area's 1580 WNEW-AM Morningside, MD "Gov. Biz Radio".

Unless there's a format change afoot at Fresh 102.7 NY (not likely), the WWFS calls should stay put for some time.

I heard they were getting rid of the WNEW call letters in DC and possibly bringing them to 102.7

Agreed, if Fresh is going somewhere, maybe but why change them after all this time if the station is staying?

I don't think CBS is ready to kill the DC all news format and WNEW is a major part of their branding.
