1350 AM WARF Cleveland OH

WARF (1350 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Akron, Ohio, known as "Fox Sports 1350 The Gambler" and carrying a sports format. Owned by iHeartMedia, WARF serves the Greater Cleveland and Akron metro areas as an affiliate of Fox Sports Radio and VSiN. The station also carries play-by-play of the Cleveland Monsters and Cleveland State Vikings men's basketball, and Spanish broadcasts of Cleveland Guardians home games.

Originally WADC, this station is the oldest surviving radio station in Akron, founded and owned by Allen T. Simmons. A charter affiliate of the CBS Radio Network, WADC was a key station in the network up to the early 1960s. Becoming WSLR in 1965, the station became one of the earliest country music stations in the region, and remained as such until switching to urban contemporary as WTOU in 1994. WTOU retained their call sign after becoming an ESPN Radio affiliate in 1999 and a Fox Sports Radio affiliate in 2001, but changed to the current WARF calls in 2005 during a two-year stretch as progressive talk. Having returned to a sports format in 2007, and resuming its Fox Sports affiliation in 2009, WARF was reoriented to the Cleveland media market in 2020 with the addition of VSiN sports betting-related programming.

WARF's studios are located in the Six Six Eight Building in Downtown Cleveland's Gateway District, while the station transmitter resides in Cuyahoga Falls. In addition to a standard analog transmission, WARF broadcasts a digital signal through the HD Radio in-band on-channel standard, and streams online via iHeartRadio.
