WING (1410 AM) is a commercial radio station in Dayton, Ohio operating with 5,000 watts along with studios, offices and transmitter located on David Road in Kettering. It is the first (and oldest) full-time commercial radio station in Dayton. It is currently a local affiliate for ESPN Radio and the Ohio State Sports Network, but is best known and remembered as Dayton's first Top 40-formatted station.

WING operates at 5,000 watts around the clock. A single tower is used during the day, providing at least secondary coverage to most of southwestern Ohio. At night, two towers are used in a directional pattern to protect CFTE in Vancouver, British Columbia, concentrating the signal around Dayton.

  1. ^ "In The Air Tonight", Dayton Daily News, June 4, 1924, page 13. Due to a typographical error, some later sources incorrectly list the station's first airdate as "May 24, 1921", which is actually exactly three years before the actual date of the station's initial test transmission as reported by Stanley Krohn. ("Stanley Krohn Jr. dies at 75; began first radio station here", Dayton Daily News, February 22, 1977, page 20.) This incorrect year appears in the May 1962 issue of Broadcasting magazine ("Radio stations 40 or more years old in 1962" ("WING Dayton, Ohio" entry), Broadcasting, May 14, 1962, page 132.) However, on May 2, 1929, reflecting its actual establishment in 1924, it was reported that the station, now WSMK, was in the process of celebrating its fifth anniversary ("Station WSMK Will Celebrate Fifth", Dayton (Ohio) Daily News, May 2, 1929, page 4). The 1962 Broadcasting magazine entry also makes an erroneous reference to the supposed initial use of the call letters "WXAX", which was not actually assigned to any stations at this time.
