WAVR

WAVR (102.1 FM) and WATS (960 AM) are a pair of radio stations simulcasting an adult contemporary format. The stations serve Bradford County, Pennsylvania and Tioga County, New York, located in the Twin Tiers between Elmira and Binghamton. The station is currently owned by WATS Broadcasting, Inc., a corporation owned by local residents Chuck Carver, Larry Brown and Todd Bowers. The station features a local morning program hosted by Carver and Bowers called "Chuck and Todd Live" and programming from AP Radio and Jones Radio Network.[1] In October 2020, the consortium agreed to sell WATS and WAVR to Dave Radigan, the owner of WEBO, a similarly formatted station in Owego.[2]
