		WTOP, the area's all-news station, will be moving to 103.5 FM as of today as part of a major radio shake-up, owner Bonneville International announced today.
		In addition, WTOP is pairing with the Washington Post to launch a new station broadcast on 1500 AM and 107.7 FM starting in late March.
		"WTOP has been the source for news and information in emergencies like the 9/11 terrorist attacks as well as threatening weather, school closings, and traffic for the community," according to Joel Oxley, Bonneville's senior vice president.

	WTOP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Simulcasts of WTOP on its former frequencies, AM 1500 kHz WTWP from Washington, FM 107.7 MHz WTWP-FM from Warrenton, Virginia, and low-power FM translator W282BA 104.3 FM from Leesburg, Virginia terminated on March 30, 2006.
		The frequencies long-used by WTOP, 1500 kHz and 107.7 MHz (and the low-powered 104.3 FM translator in Leesburg), were reassigned to a new station, "Washington Post Radio," which launched on March 30, 2006.
		WTOP's original callsign was WJSV; it was changed to WTOP because its then-primary frequency 1500 kHz was at the "top" of the mediumwave AM band.

		WTOP also provided heavy coverage of the District's lead-in-the-water crisis and the return of the snakehead fish.

	WUSA (TV) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In June 1950, WTOP Incorporated, which was a joint venture of the Washington Post (which owned 55 percent) and CBS (which owned 45 percent) purchased WOIC-TV and changed the call sign to WTOP-TV, after its new sister stations WTOP radio (then at 1500 kHz.) and WTOP-FM (96.3 MHz., now WHUR-FM).
		In 1954 the WTOP stations moved into a new facility, known as "Broadcast House", at 40th and Brandywine streets NW in Washington.
		The Post gained full ownership of WTOP Inc. in 1956 when 45-percent owner CBS was ordered by the Federal Communications Commission to divest itself of its part ownership to comply with the FCC's new seven-station ownership rule.

	DCist: WTOP Open for the Commenting (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Called WTOP TalkBack, the feature is much the same to our lively comments section, the only difference being that much like the Post before them, WTOP has been smart enough to run all submitted comments through a moderator.
		For a comment to be posted to a story, it must meet the rather stringent guidelines established in WTOP's Message Board Policies, which encourage commenters to be "nice...reasonable...intelligent" while refraining from personal attacks or hate speech, suggestive or offensive language, the use of uppercaps, and mean-spirited sarcasm.
		WTOP will regret this decision the minute Jonathan Rees catches wind that there's one place in the online universe that hasn't banned him and his, ummm, thought-provoking rants and raves.

	LEXSEE 25 F
		These obligations differ from the general fairness requirement that issues be presented and presented with coverage of competing views, in that the broadcaster does not have the option of presenting the attacked party's side himself or choosing a third party to present that side.
		Inasmuch as WTOP appears to have presented "representative community views" on the issues here in question, we find that it has not acted contrary to the principles laid down in Red Lion.
		Based on the foregoing, we cannot find that the licensee of WTOP acted unreasonably or in bad faith with respect to the fairness doctrine, nor do we believe that its conduct was inconsistent with the principles laid down by the Supreme Court in Red Lion or infringed the First Amendment rights of BEM's spokesmen.

		In its response, WTOP contends that the forfeiture should be rescinded or reduced because, although the subject announcements did not comply with the literal terms of Section 73.1212 of the Commission's Rules, they contained a tag line stating that the announcement was commercial in nature.
		Finally, WTOP states that the station has a history of compliance with all Commission rules and has not been found to have previously violated any FCC rule or policy.
		IT IS ORDERED, that WTOP License Limited Partnership, licensee of Station WTOP(AM), Washington, DC, FORFEIT to the United States the sum of three thousand dollars ($3,000) for the repeated violation of Section 317 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 73.1212 of the Commission's Rules.

	Z-104 Silenced; Post Radio To Debut in Station Shuffle
		Station officials said WTOP's signal would be the most powerful in the region, with a "footprint" stretching from south of Fredericksburg to north of Baltimore and incorporating parts of Maryland's Eastern Shore.
		WTOP, which usually ranks among the area's top five stations in audience share, is the market leader in advertising sales.
		The station's success reflects not just the size of its audience but also its attractive demographics; news consumers are generally perceived by advertisers to be among the best educated, to have relatively high incomes and to pay closer attention to the radio than those who listen to music stations.

	Yirga What, Yirga Who: Oldies 100 gone and WTOP moved
		I also learned from the Washington Post 2 that WTOP has moved and that the 1500 am frequency has been occupied by WTWP, the Washington Post radio.
		WTOP has moved to 103.5 am so I will still be able to get my sports every half an hour and my weather and traffic every 10 minutes.
		Now WTOP changes to 103.5 whose signal is really poor and unlistenable for the first half of my trip (you know, when you need the traffic reports!) and WBIG switches to the New WBIG - a mixture of half recognizable tunes with no DJs or any chatter to keep me awake.

		I did a series of "columns"on a weekly basis for WTOP for about 5 years and all my columns were about life in general or about economics (I once did a column on the rip off taxi system at the D.C. airport).

		The application for 5-kilowatts argued that KSTP and WTOP having let out their respective patterns towards each other (in 1985 under an experimental STA) resulted in the interference from WLQV being masked by the interference from WTOP.
		I should note that in 1986, I worked for A.D. Ring and Associates, the consulting engineers for KSTP, and was of course, by that association, slightly familiar with the experimental STA that KSTP-WTOP were operating under.
		The agreement between the stations has been agreed to between the stations only, but has not been acted upon by the Commission, so each station awaits the Commissions' action on the settlement request and a grant of their respective construction permit applications.
