WSKW (1160 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Skowhegan, Maine. It is owned by J. Hanson Company, doing business as Mix Maine Media, and it carries a radio format of sports from Infinity Sports Network. The studios and offices are in the Lee Farm Mall in Augusta.
WSKW broadcasts with 10,000 watts by day and uses a non-directional antenna at all times. Because AM 1160 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A station KSL in Salt Lake City, WSKW must reduce power at night to 730 watts to avoid interference. The transmitter is off Middle Road (State Route 104) in Skowhegan.
