WLSW
WLSW is an American radio station, licensed in the Pittsburgh suburb of Scottdale, Pennsylvania it serves the Pittsburgh Media Market. The station operates at the federally assigned frequency of 103.9 MHz with an effective radiated power of 320 watts. The station was privately owned by Ludwig Stanley "Uncle Stan" Wall until his death on June 4, 2015.
==History==
WLSW first signed on the air back in 1971, founded by legendary Pittsburgh DJ Ludwig Stanley "Uncle Stan" Wall, who first applied for the frequency back in 1968 upon the advice of a friend who was a broadcast engineer. Wall had also been a DJ and later general manager for WTRA (now WCNS) in Latrobe prior to putting this station on the air.
Unlike many FM stations of its time, WLSW was a standalone operation. It's important to remember at this time this was an oddity, because few cars in those days were equipped with FM radios, and FM's were often simulcast by their AM sister operations. It's also important to remember that FM had barely begun to gain acceptance among its AM counterpart.
Nevertheless, WLSW forged ahead, with a format mainly composed of oldies, rock, and Top 40 music. Its studios, offices, and transmitter were located in a converted double-wide mobile home at the top of a mountain on PA Route 711 a few miles east of Connellsville. Geographic references were often made by the DJ's as "Magic Mountain", while others jokingly called the treacherous stretch of Route 711 as "Murder Mountain"--a reference to the steep climb and potentially treacherous winter conditions on this stretch of the highway.
