Galaxy Communications

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Galaxy Communications is a radio broadcasting company with radio stations entirely in the Central New York area.

In 1989, the first Galaxy station, WKLL was launched by the current CEO, Ed Levine, and his business partner, Bob Raide. In the 1990's, Galaxy launched additional stations in Syracuse and Utica. In 2001, the headquarters was moved from Bridgeport to a new building in Armory Square, located in downtown Syracuse. This building has multiple street level studios allowing people to see the DJ's at work. WKLL remains owned by Galaxy to this day.

Galaxy divested itself of its Albany, New York cluster and swapped several stations in a multi-owner deal that included Clear Channel Communications in Utica/Rome 2007.
