WTLA
ESPN Radio affiliate in North Syracuse, New York
WTLA (1200 AM; "ESPN Radio 97.7") is a commercial radio station licensed to North Syracuse, New York, and serving the Syracuse metropolitan area. The station is owned by Galaxy Communications and airs a sports radio format. Programming is also simulcast on co-owned AM 1440 WSGO in Oswego, New York.
WTLA operates with 1,000 watts. Because 1200 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WOAI San Antonio, WTLA uses a directional antenna at night to avoid interference when radio waves travel farther. WTLA's transmitter is off Davis Road North in Cicero, New York, near Interstate 481.[1] WTLA also is heard on 120-watt FM translator W249BC at 97.7 MHz in nearby Mattydale, New York.[2]
