===Rochester Radio City=== In February 1948, WHAM and its FM [[sister station]], WHFM (now [[WBZA]]), moved into a new facility, Rochester Radio City. The building included 24 offices and six studios, the largest of which could accommodate 400 people in the audience.<ref name=facility/> WHAM has ties to two of the city's television stations. It put the city's first station on the air, WHAM-TV, in 1949. That station is now [[WROC-TV]], the area's [[CBS]] [[Network affiliate|affiliate]]. In 2005, the area's [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] affiliate, WOKR, changed its [[call sign]] to [[WHAM-TV]]. Clear Channel Communications (now known as [[iHeartMedia]]), already the owner of WHAM radio, owned WOKR/WHAM-TV from 2002 until the sale of its entire television group to [[Newport Television]] (controlled by Providence Equity Partners) in 2007; the two stations still have a news partnership.
