[edit] History Of WNYT Radio
Located on the Old Westbury campus of New York Institute of Technology WNYT Radio was formed in 1964 as a campus club, where it began and still is a completely student run station.
WNYT had gone through an array of changes through the years from its broadcasting mediums; Carrier Current, Closed Circuit Connections, the background music for Cablevision’s on screen program guide, and now internet radio. In addition changes have occurred in the formats WNYT has relied upon, from all rock music to its current open format.
WNYT Radio has served as a springboard for a wide array of talent and air personalities, with its members going on to become prominent members in New York City’s Media. In addition it has acted as a voice of NYIT campus for generations. It is one of the few college radio stations on Long Island, and the greater metropolitan area that is entirely run by its students. From its air personalities, to the programming, every single aspect of the radio station is over seen by the students of NYIT.
