WNNW's transmitter is off Chandler Road in Andover, Massachusetts. The station broadcasts at 3,000 watts by day; because AM 800 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Mexico, WNNW must reduce power at night to 244 watts. It uses a non-directional antenna at all times. WNNW is also heard on FM translator W275BH at 102.9 MHz, which also uses the same Andover tower as the AM station.
