WTSN (1270 kHz) is a commercial radio station licensed to Dover, New Hampshire and serving the Seacoast Region of New Hampshire and Southern Maine. WTSN airs a news/talk radio format with sports at night. It broadcasts with 5,000 watts of power from a transmitter on Back Road in Dover.

WTSN is simulcast on an FM translator at 98.1, W251CF.[2] The station identifies itself using its FM frequency, "News Talk 98.1 WTSN."[3]

Programming

WTSN carries local and syndicated talk programming. The station began carrying the Boston-based Howie Carr Show in late afternoons on February 16, 2015. Dennis Prager was added in early afternoons in 2016. The station also carries live high school sports. Mike Pomp hosts the award-winning Morning Information Center and Open Mic Show.

WTSN features local news updates throughout the day, in addition to NH1 News and CBS News Radio updates.

History

WTSN first signed on in 1956.[4] The call sign was chosen because the original owner was the Twin State Network, which owned radio stations in both New Hampshire and Vermont.

In August 2015 WTSN and its sister station WBYY joined with Aruba Capital Holdings's WXEX and Port Broadcasting's WNBP and WWSF to form Coastal Media Partners, with Port Broadcasting management assuming immediate oversight of WTSN and WBYY.[5] The merger failed to close, and in April 2016 WTSN and sister station WBYY were sold to Binnie Media for $2.1 million.[6] The sale officially closed on September 29, 2016.

WTSN began a simulcast using an FM translator on 98.1 MHz (W251CF) in November 2016.
