WSLB (1400 AM) is an all-sports radio station, operating from Ogdensburg, New York, United States. Prior to switching to an all-sports format, WSLB was an oldies radio station. WSLB is the affiliate of ESPN Radio for the St. Lawrence County area.

History

WSLB began broadcasting in 1940 as the Mutual Broadcasting System affiliate in Ogdensburg. The station switched to NBC in the early 1990's when it entered into a three-way simulcast with sister stations WIGS (1230) and WGIX (95.3) in Gouverneur, NY with a oldies format as "FSR -- Full-Service Radio. WIGS went off the air permanently in the mid-1990's and the two remaining stations simulcasted until WSLB took a talk-radio format as "Talk 1400" a few years ago. In 2006, the station picked up the ESPN Radio affiliation on weekends before going full-time beginning Saturday, December 1, 2007.
