WREO-FM (97.1 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Adult Contemporary format. Licensed to Ashtabula, Ohio, USA, it serves the Ashtabula area. The station is currently owned by Sweet Home Ashtabula, LLC and features programing from ABC Radio .

April 2008 - It seems as if the station has changed format a tiny bit to more of a Hot AC station while still playing the occasional 70s or 80s song. Not quite sure what the "traditional" name for this format would be called but it sounds like they might be going for a bit of a "Mix" format with a twist. Don't know if the twist is on purpose or by accident. It's either the invention of a new format or an aim at a "mix" format that has missed it's mark. Overall it's not bad, a few too many "B Sides" to be taken seriously but in the end, this station proves that local radio and in house programming is back!
