WHAZ (1330 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Troy, New York, and serving New York's Capital District. The station is locally owned by the Capital Media Corporation and broadcasts a Christian talk and teaching radio format. National religious leaders heard on WHAZ include Jim Daly, Charles Stanley, Joyce Meyer, Chuck Swindoll and David Jeremiah.

WHAZ transmits fulltime with a non-directional antenna on Van Schaick Island in Cohoes. By day, it operates with 1,000 watts, at night it greatly reduces power to 49 watts to protect other stations on 1330 AM from interference.^[2] WHAZ's programming is also simulcast on four FM stations and one FM translator on the fringes of the market, branded the "Alive Radio Network".
