WPRV (790 AM, "The Score") is a commercial radio station in Providence, Rhode Island. The station is owned by Cumulus Media, and airs a sports radio format, largely focused on sports betting. The studios are on Wampanoag Trail in East Providence. Established in 1922 as WEAN, the station is the oldest surviving radio station in Rhode Island.

WPRV’s power is 5,000 watts, non-directional by day, but to protect other stations on 790 AM from interference, at night it uses a directional antenna with a two-tower array. The transmitter is off King Phillip Road in East Providence, near the Seekonk River.^[3]
