Wesgo was an Australian broadcasting enterprise that owned several radio stations. It was established on 14 October 1982 through the consolidation of Sydney's 2WS and Gosford's 2GO. By October 1987, Wesgo expanded its portfolio by acquiring eight stations from AWA, thereby becoming the largest radio operator in Australia with a total of 50 stations. In 1994, Australian Provincial Newspapers purchased Wesgo, leading to its removal from the Australian Securities Exchange listings.
