It was December 5, 1925, 97 years ago this week, that one of New York's oldest radio stations signed on the air for the very first time. WIBX 1460 AM started broadcasting in the Clark Building in downtown Utica and the top floor of Hotel Utica. The station would move around the dial until 1948 where it would land for good at 950 AM with a power increase to 500 watts. Today the radio station is 5000 watts and also simulcasts on FM frequency 106.9.
