The station is owned by Saga Communications and calls itself "Newsradio 560 and 105.5." The format is news/talk, with local news being provided by a local staff and national news provided by CBS News Radio. The station is also heard on a low-power FM translator, 105.5, which allows listeners who prefer FM radio to hear WGAN in and around the city of Portland. In addition, WGAN is heard on the HD2 channel of co-owned 93.1 WMGX. AM 560 broadcasts at 5,000 watts around the clock, covering much of Southern Maine and along the Maine Coast up to Rockland. Studios and offices are located on Western Avenue in South Portland and the transmitter is near the Maine Turnpike off Warren Avenue in Portland. HistoryThe station was founded in 1938 by Guy Gannett Publishing, which was then the owner of the Portland Press Herald newspaper.[1] WGAN gained a companion television station, WGAN-TV 13, in 1954 and a co-owned FM station, 102.9 WGAN-FM (now WBLM) in 1967. Until the early 1980s, Gannett's Portland operations owned the major daily newspaper, the CBS television station, 102.9 WGAN-FM and 560 WGAN, two of the city's top radio stations. Channel 13 was later renamed WGME when WGAN-AM-FM were sold to Taylor Communications in 1983. In 1987, WGAN was sold by Taylor to Saga Communications, its present owner. On May 27, 2014, WGAN began simulcasting on FM translator W288CU 105.5 FM, via WMGX's HD2 subchannel.[2] Translator{{RadioTranslators| call1 = W288CU | freq1 = 105.5 | fid1 = 150422 | watts1 = 200 | class1 = D | city1 = Portland, Maine | coord1 = {{coord|43|41|26|N|70|19|5|W|region:US-ME_type:landmark|name=W288CU}} | notes1 = via WMGX-HD2 }} References1. ^Broadcasting Yearbook 1977 2. ^WGAN Adds FM Signal External links{{AM station data|WGAN}}
