The offices and studios are on Plum Street in Syracuse.[3]
WHEN is powered at 5,000 watts by day, using a non-directional antenna. To avoid interfering with other stations on AM 620, WHEN reduces power at night to 1,000 watts and uses a directional antenna. The transmitter is off Old Liverpool Road in Liverpool.[4] Programming is also heard on 50 watt FM translator W269DT at 101.7 MHz.[5] It is also simulcast on the HD radio subchannel of WSYR-FM-HD2 at 106.9 MHz.
