WESC (660 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Greenville, South Carolina. It simulcasts a classic country format with sister station WESC-FM 92.5. Owned by iHeartMedia, it serves Upstate South Carolina with studios on North Main Street in Greenville.
By day, WESC is powered at 5,000 watts, using a non-directional antenna. Because 660 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WFAN in New York City, WESC must go off the air at night to avoid interference. The transmitter is on Saluda Lake Road, near White Horse Road (U.S. Route 25) in Berea.[2]
