WLZR (1560 AM) is a commercial radio station, licensed to Melbourne, Florida, and serving the Melbourne-Titusville-Cocoa area of the Space Coast. It is owned by Cumulus Media and broadcasts a sports radio format.[2] Most of the programming comes from the Infinity Sports Network.
By day, WLZR is powered at 5,000 watts, non-directional.[3] But because 1560 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for WFME in New York City, WLZR is a daytimer. It must go off the air at sunset to avoid interference with older, higher power stations.
