callsign_meaning = Wilson County's Own Radio|WCOR is an AM
radio station broadcasting in the eastern portion of theNashville, Tennessee market with a power of 1,000 watts.In its early years, WCOR functioned as a community-oriented station aimed primarily at residents of
Wilson County, Tennessee . (It is licensed to the county seat of Wilson County, Lebanon). After this format became untenable in the 1980s (as it did for many small-town radio stations, particularly those located adjacent to major and mid-major markets), the station, after going dark for a period, resumed operation, marketing itself to particularly the eastern portion of the wider Nashville market. Its programming now consists solely of a simulcast of its FM sister station,WANT .In fall 2005, the station moved from the 900 kHz frequency, where it had spent nearly 60 years, to a newly-licensed frequency at 1490 kHz.
The station is an affiliate of the
Tennessee Titans radio network. [ cite web|url=http://www.titansradio.com/stationstn.html|title=Titans Radio in Tennessee|work=Titans Radio]References
