WFED is a clear channel Class A mediumwave (AM broadcast band) station transmitting 50,000 watts (50 kW) on 1500 kHz (1.500 MHz) from Washington, D.C. It formerly used the callsign WTOP (WTOP is now used by a FM station in Washington, D.C., which carries WTOP's former AM news/traffic/weather format. For a period of time WTOP transmitted on AM and FM before switching exclusively to FM and changing the Washington, D.C. 1500 kHz facility to WFED. WFED can reliably be heard a considerable distance from D.C. during the daytime (often reaching as far south as Richmond, VA and north past Baltimore, MD).

WFED shares the 1500 kHz frequency with (some other station that I can't remember right now)
