Local hosts are heard during the day on weekdays, with CBS Sports Radio airing nights and weekends. The station is owned by John and Blake Byrne, through licensee Byrne Acquisition Group, LLC.
By day, WAHT transmits with 15,000 watts,[2] but because 1560 AM is a clear channel frequency, WAHT must sign off at night to avoid interference.
