Liverpool Broadcasting and Transmitting Co Pty Ltd was granted an AM radio license in the late 1970s, specifically to serve the Western Suburbs of Sydney. 2WS began broadcasting at 12:24 am on 23 November 1978, the same day all Australian AM radio stations switched from 10 kHz to 9 kHz frequencies from temporary studios in a relocated cottage at 2 Leabons Lane, Seven Hills with a 5 kW transmitter located at nearby Prospect. The studios subsequently moved, in October 1979, into a purpose built complex behind the old cottage in Leabons Lane. The original building was demolished, with the material donated to charity. In the early 1990s the station was granted an FM licence covering the full Sydney metropolitan area. Its original FM transmitter site was located at Channel 9 Willoughby, later moving in with sister station, MIX106.5 (now KIIS) to Artarmon, in northern Sydney. The official callsign was changed to 2UUS (using a literal 'double-U' to compensate for the extra letter required), although the station still identified as 2WS until 2001, when they changed their on-air name to WSFM. 2WS, 1224 on the A.M. band converted to the FM band and began broadcasting as 2WS-FM on 101.7 MHz in 1 June 1993 at 8 a.m.

WSFM now broadcasts from studios at North Ryde. The building also houses facilities for KIIS 106.5 and CADA, both also owned by  ARN. The previous studios in Seven Hills are now serviced by Christian/Adult Contemporary radio station, Hope 103.2. References
