AM1380 live

AM1380 is a multicultural station in New York. It broadcasts as WKDM on 1380 AM and is owned by Multicultural Broadcasting. On this page you can listen to AM1380 live online, free.

Two communities

WKDM carries brokered Mandarin Chinese programming on weekdays and Spanish-language Christian radio on weekends — serving two of New York's large communities.

Signal

WKDM runs 5,000 watts by day with a directional antenna to protect other stations on 1380 AM. After the FCC granted a permit to raise night power, it operates at 13,000 watts after sunset with a different directional pattern.

A long history

The station signed on September 25, 1926, as WKBQ. It was WBNX from 1930 to 1984, then WKDM, WNNY and WLXE before the WKDM call letters returned.

Sister stations

WKDM's sister stations are WPAT, WWRU and WZRC.

Why listeners tune in

For Chinese- and Spanish-speaking New Yorkers, AM1380 offers programming in their own languages — news, culture and faith.
