WXLW (950 AM) is a commercial radio station in Indianapolis, Indiana. It is owned by Pilgrim Communications LLC. Along with sister station 95.9 WFDM-FM, it simulcasts a talk radio format, known as "Freedom 95." The radio studios and offices are on Industrial Road off U.S. Route 31 in Franklin, Indiana. After a local morning news and information show hosted by Todd Huff, the rest of the schedule is nationally syndicated talk hosts: Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, "The Ramsey Show with Dave Ramsey," Mark Levin, Joe Pags, Ben Shapiro, "Our American Stories with Lee Habeeb" and "This Morning, America's First News with Gordon Deal."
By day, WXLW is powered at 1,000 watts non-directional. But to avoid causing interference to other stations on 950 AM, the power drops to 13 watts at night. The transmitter is off West 56th Street near Georgetown Road on the northwest side of Indianapolis.[2]
