WDCZ

WDCZ (970 AM) is an American radio station in Buffalo, New York. The station is owned by Crawford Broadcasting.

WDCZ has not originated any programming of its own since 2012. The station went on the air in 1924 as commercial station WEBR, and operated as such until its sale to the Western New York Public Broadcasting Association in 1975. It then operated as a public radio station from 1975 to 2012, changing its call sign to WNED in 1993. In its later years, much of WNED's programming duplicated that of competing FM station WBFO, which eventually prompted the two stations to merge operations (using WBFO's frequency) in 2012. After several months of simulcasting WBFO, the 970 facility was sold off to Crawford, owners of religious-formatted WDCX-FM, who in turn switched 970 to a simulcast of WDCX as WDCZ.
