WASH is a Clear Channel Communications radio station located at 97.1 FM in Washington, D.C.. Known on-air as "Wash-FM", the station has a soft rock format. The station also streams its broadcast on the Internet.

WASH has been a soft adult contemporary station in one form or another since the 70s. For a few years in the early 80s, the station attempted to do a Top 40 / CHR format which had no success and the station later returned to their original Soft A/C format. On Saturday nights from 7 pm - midnight (Eastern time), the station plays disco music and related songs (mostly 70s Top 40] in a program known as "Jammin' Saturday Night". The station recently began broadcasting two hours of 80s music (from midnight - 2:00 am Eastern time) immediately following "Jammin' Saturday Night".

The station plays exclusively Christmas music from the last week of November through Christmas Day, and calls itself "Washington's Home for the Holidays" during the season.
