WMXW (103.3 MHz) is a commercial FM radio station licensed to Vestal, New York and serving the Binghamton metropolitan area.[1] The station airs an adult contemporary radio format and is owned by iHeartMedia. Local DJs are heard on weekdays, with the syndicated Delilah show on weeknights and Ellen K on Saturday mornings.

The studios and offices are on North Jensen Road in Vestal.[2] The transmitter is off Ingraham Hill Road in Binghamton, amid other towers for local TV and FM stations.[3]

History[edit]

On June 2, 1989, the station signed on the air.[4] From its start, it was an AC station, but at first it played soft adult contemporary music. It was owned by local business people.

In 1997, it was bought by Majac of Michigan, Inc.[5] Majac kept the AC format. In 2000, it was acquired by Clear Channel Communications, which also left its AC format in place.[6] Clear Channel later became iHeartMedia, the current owner.
