WICC radio, which has been on the AM dial since 1926, adds 107.3 FM as an additional frequency.
Bridgeport’s first radio station has been a fixture at 600 AM since 1930, delivering news and information to the local community for decades. The radio station features local personalities Melissa Sheketoff in mornings, Lisa Wexler in middays and Paul Pacelli in afternoons.
“With the addition of an FM frequency, we will really be able to get local news and information to more of the listeners of Bridgeport and beyond,” said Program Director Allan Lamberti. “This is a community that is underserved by local television news and really WICC is the only radio station that delivers it.”
Connoisseur Media purchased WICC in 2019 with its mission to deliver more quality local news programming to the area.
“WICC is one of the first radio stations in our state and it’s our honor to not only expand its reach but also to continue to keep it relevant and local for southern Connecticut,” said Senior Vice President / Market Manager Kristin Okesson.
Connoisseur Media is headquartered in Westport, CT. Connoisseur Media owns or operates 14 radio stations in four markets: Metro Fairfield, CT; New Haven CT; Nassau-Suffolk (Long Island), NY; and Frederick, MD.
