The Steelers flagship is an FM - but it's WDVE 102.5 Pittsburgh.

"Rocky 92" is WRKW 92.1 Johnstown, ex-WQKK, ex-ex-WGLU, and it's 
co-owned with WNTW.

I'll have to remember to listen to WNTJ 850, which is usually a 
regular here in Rochester (and probably nowhere else, given that it's 
a 9-tower directional aimed north) and which is theoretically // 
WNTW. (Well, technically, WNTW is // WNTJ, though it sounds from 
these reports as though it's // WRKW lately, instead.)

The radio dials in Johnstown and nearby Altoona and State College 
have been tremendously unsettled this past year - nearly all the 
stations in those markets have changed ownership at least once, and 
that's brought about more call and format changes, especially on the 
FMs, than you can shake a ferrite rod at.
