WFAS is an AM radio station in Westchester County, New York and vicinity broadcasting on 1230 kHz. The station switched from a classic adult contemporary format to News/Talk mixed with soft favorites in January 2012, and is owned by Cumulus Media.

In the late nights and weekend evenings, catholic talk programming is leased to Radio Maria New York from its English language studio.

The morning show is hosted by Orlando. The Lisa Wexler Show airs weekday afternoons.

The call letters stand for businessman Frank A. Seitz, and is broadcast from the White Plains Roger Smith Hotel.
