WUSP

WUSP and WRCK are AM radio stations operating at 1550 kHz and 1480 kHz and located in Utica, New York and Remsen, New York respectively. The stations are currently owned by Frank Abadessa and Thomas Coyne, through licensee Good Guys Broadcasting Corporation. In July 2010, the stations added an FM simulcast in W238CA 95.5 FM in Middleville and rebranded as B95.5 and now transmitting/licensed from atop Smith Hill in Deerfield. It is currently branded as 95.5 WUSP. WRCK was known as WADR until March 2012; the WRCK call letters were previously used by the stations now known as WUTQ-FM and WKVU. From the late 1990s onward, WADR and WUTQ (AM) were two of the four stations collectively known as the "Sports Stars Radio Network," a collection of four AM radio stations carrying a mix of local and national sports talk. When station owner Clear Channel Communications exited most of its small markets in 2007, the network was broken up: WLFH and WRNY went to Galaxy Communications while WUTQ and WADR were sold to Ken Roser and became full-service outlets.
