SYRACUSE -- More often than not, when a radio station changes its call letters, that's usually a hint (or an after-effect) of a format change.

FULTON - It's Patsy Cline and George Jones for 'The New AM 1300'. Fulton's WAMF 1300 AM (formerly WOSC and WZZZ) is up and running with a new format of traditional country music with Don DeRosa, the station's new owner, handling morning show duties.
