WING
WING "ESPN 1410" is a commercial AM radio station in Dayton, Ohio operating with 5,000 watts at 1410 kHz with studios, offices and transmitter located on David Road in Kettering. It is the first (and oldest) full-time commercial radio station in Dayton. It is currently a local affiliate for ESPN Radio and the Ohio State IMG Sports Network, but is best known and remembered as Dayton's first Top 40-formatted station.
==Early history==
WING was founded on May 24, 1921 under the original call sign WXAX with only 5 watts of power but changed to WDBS (for Dayton Broadcasting Service, its original company which also stood for "Watch Dayton's Broadcasting Station") at the beginning of radio's golden age, then becoming WSMK in 1926 (for Stanley M. Krohn who founded the station and the company). It also upgraded its power to one thousand watts that same year. Programming hours were sporadic and operated on several different frequencies. Its first studio was located in the former Beckel House Hotel on East Third Street in downtown Dayton. Actor/dancer/singer/musician Scatman Crothers got his start at the station during the WSMK era in 1932. Another ownership change took place in 1939 when Cincinnati businessman Charles Sawyer bought the station from Krohn and switching the calls, at the suggestion of Jack Snow, to WING to become synonymous with Dayton's aviation history. It then moved to the second floor above the Loews Theater also located downtown at 125 North Main Street (demolished in 1975) where it remained until 1960. It was that same year when WING was granted by the FCC to upgrade its power to 5 thousand watts and to construct a new transmitter site on David Road in Kettering.
