- WCGS (105.9 FM) is a radio station licensed to Little Valley, New York. The station, with its tower on Fourth Street in the village of Little Valley, broadcasts at 7,000 watts, effective radiated power (ERP). From 2010 to 2021, the Seneca Nation of New York operated the station as WGWE, carrying a locally originated classic hits format targeting the western Southern Tier; the station's signal gave strong coverage to both of the Seneca Nation's populated reservations as well as the cities of Dunkirk, Jamestown, Olean and Bradford, all within a 30-mile radius of Little Valley (such that the previous inhabitant of 105.9 in Jamestown, WOGM-LP, had to change frequencies to 104.7 to accommodate the new signal). It was this 11-year run that is most associated with the WGWE history. Pandemic-related disruptions and consolidation of the other radio stations in Cattaraugus County under one company prompted the Seneca Nation to abandon the station, in which it had previously invested heavily, in 2021. A brief effort was made to repurpose the signal as a rimshot covering the southern suburbs of Buffalo, New York, when Paul Izard purchased the signal to simulcast his electronic dance music webcast. Izard shut down the station after six weeks and surrendered the license to the FCC. The station's license was acquired by the Family Life Network effective September 8, 2022; on September 15, 2022, the station changed its call letters to WCGS. (en)
