WWKU (1450 AM) is a radio station licensed to Plum Springs, Kentucky, USA.[1] The station is owned by Newberry Broadcasting, Inc. and runs ESPN Radio sports programming. The station moved from 1440 to 1450 in May 2008 to allow for an upgrade to a stronger signal of 1,000 watts day and night (compared with the 500 watts day and 30 watts night it previously had). Before having Plum Springs as its official city of license, WWKU was licensed by the Federal Communications Commission to the town of Glasgow, Kentucky.
In 2015, WWKU launched an FM repeater, W274BQ, licensed to Bowling Green. That translator repeats WWKU's AM signal from a tower located somewhere within the campus of Western Kentucky University in downtown Bowling Green. [2]
