WPYX (PYX 106) is a Classic Rock radio station licensed to Albany, New York and primarily serving New York's Capital Region, the Adirondacks, and surrounding areas. The station is owned by Clear Channel Communications and broadcasts at 106.5 MHz at 15.5 kilowatts ERP from a non-directional transmitter located from the Helderberg Mountains antenna farm in New Scotland.
The 106.5 frequency signed on in September 1967 as WDKC, operating as an MOR music station. It was owned by Kopps-Monahan Communications, Inc owners of Top 40 powerhouse WTRY-AM 980 (Now WOFX). In 1971, the call letters were changed to WTRY-FM. It continued as an MOR station during the day, but simulcasted WTRY-AM's Top 40 format at night. WTRY-FM returned to full time MOR programming in 1972. In early 1973, WTRY AM and FM were sold, and WTRY-FM became WHSH, which then went to its first full time Rock format as the format was changed to a Top 40–Oldies hybrid with live DJs. The station was now known as "Wish" as well as "The Albany Stereo Giant". Ownership automated the station a year later in 1974, and changed the format to Oldies. During Labor Day weekend, 1975, the format was flipped again, this time to beautiful music, while keeping the "Wish" nickname.
By 1980, there was an obvious hole for a mainstream Album Oriented Rock station in the Albany market, and the station flipped to its current format on September 15, 1980, changing its call letters to WPYX.
WPYX and WTRY went through several ownership changes which includes Scott Broadcasting of Pennsylvania, television personality Merv Griffin and CapStar Broadcasting (which was controlled by billionaire mogul Tom Hicks). In 1999, CapStar merged with another Hicks-owned company Chancellor Media Corporation to form AM-FM, Inc.. In 2000, the stations were acquired by its current owner Clear Channel Communications when they merged with AM-FM.
The Wolf is the host of the WPYX morning show, Wakin' Up With the Wolf. His program runs weekdays 5:30 to 10:00 a.m. Until April 28, 2009, other personalities included:
