WCPA (AM)
WCPA is an American radio station, licensed to Clearfield, Pennsylvania, the seat of government for Clearfield County. WCPA is owned and operated by First Media, Inc. WCPA broadcasts at the assigned frequency of 900 kHz with a power output of 2,500 watts day; and 500 watts night.
==History==
WCPA was the first of three radio properties once owned by Progressive Publishing, first going on the air back in 1947. Though it had always broadcast at its current frequency, this station would not be granted nighttime power authorization until 1990, when it undertook a major engineering project.
Prior to this, WCPA enjoyed a reputation as an immediate and reliable source for breaking local news, largely through the newspaper cross-ownership. This alliance resulted in many awards for the quality of their local newscasts. Wishing to expand their reach into other markets, Progressive also purchased WDAD Indiana in 1958 and WMAJ State College at around the same time. Both WDAD and WMAJ experienced massive growth while under Progressive's ownership.
In the mid 1960s, the FCC approved a round of low-powered Class A FM drop-in channels to spur growth on that band among AM broadcasters who were reluctant to take the financial risk involved with the unpopular technology. Progressive successfully applied for three FM channels in their respective markets, with WCPA's FM sister, WQYX coming on the air at 93.5 (now at 93.1) on July 12, 1967.
