CHWO is perhaps the only remaining adult standards-formatted station in North America broadcasting on a 50,000-watt clear channel signal. The station's signal is heard as far away as Charlestown, Rhode Island and Philadelphia, PA at night; in fact, it often registers significant Arbitron ratings in the Erie, Pennsylvania market and especially in Buffalo, New York (where it has picked up many disenfranchised listeners of WECK-AM since that station flipped from adult standards to classic country). During the daytime, CHWO can be heard as far west as Saginaw, Michigan, as far east as Watertown, New York, as far north as Georgian Bay, and as far south as Youngstown, Ohio, and at night, the station's signal blankets a substantial chunk of Canada and the United States. CHWO also now offers online streaming via its website. Adult Standards is a North American radio format heard primarily on AM or class A FM stations. ...
