WOO (Philadelphia)
WOO was an AM band radio station, which was operated by the Wanamaker Department Store in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from early 1922 until mid-1928. History WOO was first licensed on March 18, 1922 to John Wanamaker, and the station broadcast from a sound-proof room on the 2nd floor of the Wanamaker Department Store, adjacent to the Egyptian Hall, with the transmitter located on the 11th floor. (Six days later, a second Wanamaker station, WWZ, was licensed to the New York City store.) Note that the floors have since been renumbered, as the old 1st Floor was the first floor above the Main Floor, etc. The studio was on the present Third Floor.

In 1911 American Marconi began operating two stations located at the Wanamaker stores in Philadelphia (WHE) and New York City (WHI). Previously Marconi had exclusively operated mar ...
