WWVA (AM)

WWVA (1170 kHz, NewsRadio 1170) is an AM radio station in Wheeling, West Virginia, owned by iHeartMedia.

It is West Virginia's only class A, 50,000–watt clear-channel station, sharing the frequency's Class A status with KOTV in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and KJNP in North Pole, Alaska. Its transmitter site is located at a three-tower facility in St. Clairsville, Ohio.

During the day, a single, nondirectional tower beams its full power to northern West Virginia, southwestern Pennsylvania (including Pittsburgh), and eastern Ohio (as far as Akron). At night, power is fed to all three towers in a directional pattern to protect KOTV. Even with this restriction, it can still be heard in most of the eastern two-thirds of the United States, as well as most of Canada, with a good radio.

WWVA is one of the Local Primary 1 Emergency Alert System stations in the Wheeling area.
