WPNH (1300 AM) and WFTN (1240 AM) are commercial radio stations in Central New Hampshire. WPNH is licensed to Plymouth, and WFTN is licensed to Franklin. The stations are branded as "Oldies 92.9" and simulcast an oldies format, featuring an unusually deep and vast playlist offering the first generation of rock and roll of the 1960s. WPNH and WFTN also offer select hits from the late 1950s and the early to mid 1970s. The stations also carry Boston Red Sox during the baseball season. The studios are in Franklin, along with co-owned WPNH-FM, WFTN-FM and WSCY. Prior to the addition of both of their 92.9 FM translators, WFTN and WPNH featured programming from Westwood One's "America's Best Music" adult standards format.
