WASN was a commercial daytime-only radio station licensed to serve Youngstown, Ohio at 1500 AM, and covered the Mahoning Valley region. The station broadcast from 1976 to 2013, with intermittent broadcasting over the next four years, and ceasing operations when the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) cancelled the license due to over a year of inactivity.
