WLTM (FM)


WLTM is a radio station licensed to Mina, New York. Owned by iHeartMedia, the station broadcasts a talk radio format derived from podcasts distributed by the company. The station has a rimshot signal serving the nearby Erie, Pennsylvania market, however it is unable to be heard in the city itself because of co-channel interference from low-power broadcaster WXNM-LP. Its signal is strongest in western Chautauqua County, New York but is spotty in the population centers of Dunkirk, Fredonia and Jamestown.

History

It signed on as WJRK on November 27, 2017, soft launching with Christmas music for the holiday season. The station changed its call sign to WLTM on December 6, 2017, and officially launched on January 3, 2018, as adult contemporary 95.9 Lite FM, using an AC format syndicated from Westwood One.
On March 27, 2019, Connoisseur Media announced that it would transfer WLTM along with its sister stations to iHeartMedia in exchange for WFRE and WFMD in the Frederick, Maryland, market from the Aloha Station Trust. The sale closed on May 21, 2019.
From November 5 to December 25, 2019, the station broadcast Christmas music as Christmas 95.9. On December 26, 2019, the station flipped to talk radio as iHeartPodcast 95.9, with a schedule consisting exclusively of podcasts distributed by iHeartMedia and its subsidiaries, including Stuff You Should Know among others.
