WWFK (107.1 FM, "Frank FM") is a radio station broadcasting a classic rock radio format. Licensed to Plattsburgh West, New York, it serves the Champlain Valley, including the Plattsburgh-Burlington radio market. The station is owned by Jeff Shapiro, through licensee Great Eastern Radio, LLC, and operates in a simulcast with its WRFK (also on 107.1) in Barre.

The transmitter is located off Route 374 in Dannemora.[2]

Until its sale to Great Eastern Radio in 2021, WWFK was known for frequent changes in format and management throughout its existence; founding owner Radioactive, LLC, controlled by Randy Michaels, outsourced operations of the station to other companies and organizations that typically only ran the station for a year at a time.
