Classic hits
CBS-FM plays the biggest songs of the 1970s, 80s and 90s — pop, rock, soul and dance hits that New Yorkers know by heart — with personalities who have been part of the station for years. It has been one of the most loved stations in New York for generations, first as an oldies station and today with classic hits.
Downtown studios, Empire State signal
The studios are in Audacy's combined facility in the Hudson Square neighborhood of Lower Manhattan, and the transmitter is on the Empire State Building.
A pioneer on FM
The 101.1 frequency went on the air in December 1941 as the experimental W67NY, became WABC-FM in 1943 and later took the WCBS-FM call letters, from the Columbia Broadcasting System, its former owner.
HD channels
In HD Radio, HD2 carries sports radio from WHSQ and HD3 carries Caribbean music.
Sister stations
CBS-FM shares ownership in New York with WFAN, 1010 WINS and other Audacy stations.
