WIND-AM (Chicago, IL)
VerifiedRadio
WIND (AM 560) is a radio station based in Chicago, Illinois, broadcasting its talk radio format on 560 kHz. Studios are located in suburban Elk Grove Village, while it transmits from a four-tower array in Griffith, Indiana.
WIND is owned by Salem Media, a company specializing primarily in Christian radio.
Due to its location near the bottom of the AM dial, transmitter power, and the surrounding region's flat land, WIND's daytime signal provides at least secondary coverage to much of Illinois and Indiana, as well as southeastern Wisconsin. At night, WIND's coverage into Indiana and Central Illinois is reduced, as its nighttime pattern concentrates its signal in the Chicago and Milwaukee areas. Source
