WIRY is an AM radio station licensed to Plattsburgh, New York. The locally owned and operated radio station broadcasts at 1340 kHz into a Valcom whip antenna [(one of the only stations to do so) with a full-service Unique Version Classic Hits, A little bit country and a little Bit Rock and Roll, Blended with Some Of Todays Best Country Songs.
WIRY is primarily music-formatted, focused in The Community and surrounding areas of Pkattsburg and The Champlain Valley.
WIRY is mostly locally operated. The station has a live local morning show and an extensive local news and sports bureau, carrying the Plattsburgh Cardinals hockey team in winter months and high school sports. The station also has several creative advertising programs, including a listing of lunch menus from advertisers and a radio help-wanted show titled "Who's Hiring." Weather forecasts are taken from public domain National Weather Service reports.
The station serves as an affiliate for the New York Yankees, New York Giants, Westwood One, , When Radio Was and The Country Music Greats Radio Show.
In addition, the station also streams on the Internet. It has streamed continuously since prior to 2002 and survived the Internet radiobust that forced many stations to stop streaming at that time.
WIRY began leasing FM radio station 100.7 in 2016; the rechristened WIRY-FM will mostly simulcast the AM side, with syndicated music programs likely to air in place of sports.
