 WEW was the second Saint Louis station to receive a broadcasting authorization, following the "Post-Dispatch's" KSD (now KTRS), which had been licensed earlier that month.However, WEW has generally included the prior 9YK operations as part of its broadcasting history, so it has traditionally celebrated April 26, 1921 as its founding date.On May 31, 1922, the station was authorized to also broadcast on the 360 meter (833 kHz) entertainment wavelength.
