Radio

Stations

Shared rights (Pre-1944)

In 1943 and earlier, several stations carried the White Sox simultaneously. The team allowed as many stations as desired to carry their games, although probably not all stations carried all games, especially road games. For example, in 1931, Sox games aired on WIBO, WMAQ, WGN, WENR, and WCFL. Announcers for stations other than WGN and WMAQ are unknown.

Exclusive radio rights weren't awarded by the Sox until 1944.

  • WMAQ 670 kHz (1924-34)
    • Hal Totten (1926-34)
  • WGN 720 kHz (1927-43)
  • WCFL 970 kHz (1929-31, 1935-40)
  • WIBO 560 kHz (1930-32)
  • WENR 870 kHz (1931)
  • WJKS 1360 kHz (1932)
  • WIND 560 kHz (1933-39, 1941-43)
  • WBBM 770 kHz (1935-40)
  • WJJD 1130 kHz (1937-40)
  • WCFL 1000 kHz (1941-43)
  • WJJD 1160 kHz (1941-43)

Station frequencies and call letters are accurate for the years of their White Sox broadcasts. Due to the North American Radio Broadcasting Agreement that took effect on March 29, 1941, WCFL moved from 970 to 1000 kHz and WJJD moved from 1130 to 1160. Most American and Canadian stations above 730 kHz changed frequencies at the same time.

Exclusive rights (Since 1944)

WJJD was a daytime-only station the years they had the White Sox radio rights. Night games were carried on WIND, WFMF, WBKI, and WCFL as listed above.

Stations (Broadcast)

Stations (Cable/Pay-TV)

WBBS-TV and WPWR-TV shared Channel 60 and carried SportsVision programming in 1982 and 1983. In 1984, SportsVision programming was carried by ON-TV on WSNS Ch. 44. All broadcasts were scrambled. SportsVision became a cable and satellite station in 1985 when ON-TV ceased operations. It changed its name to SportsChannel Chicago in 1989 and Fox Sports Net Chicago in 1998.

Steve Stone will be the White Sox analyst on WGN-TV and Comcast SportsNet starting in 2009. Darrin Jackson will move to radio on WSCR.
