WVOS (1240 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a news/talk format. Licensed to Liberty, New York, United States, the station is owned by Vince Benedetto, through licensee Bold Gold Media Group, L.P.[2]
One of the station's biggest news scoops was on July 20, 1969, when it broke the news that the Woodstock music festival was going to be held in Bethel, New York. The news broke even as Max Yasgur and the promoters were in a White Lake restaurant negotiating the details of the site. According to Woodstock lore, restaurant employees called the station during the meeting.[3]
In 2010, the station was rebranded as Spanish-language: 1240 ESPN Deportes.
On September 1, 2014, WVOS changed its format from ESPN Deportes to a simulcast of classic hits-formatted WVOS-FM 95.9 Liberty, NY.
On June 26, 2023, WVOS separated from its full simulcast of WVOS-FM (classic hits) and became a news/talk format with two FM translators in the market at 92.5 and 94.9 FM. The station brings over Cilibertro & Friends talk show from sister station WDNB-FM (Thunder 102).

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
