WXLA (1180 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Dimondale, a suburb of Lansing, Michigan. It is owned by MacDonald Broadcasting and airs a soft adult contemporary radio format. During the months of November and December, the station switches to an all-Christmas music format. It uses the branding "Easy 93.3". The dial position refers to WXLA's FM translator, W227DO at 93.3 MHz in Lansing.

The station is a daytimer but the FM translator broadcasts around the clock. WXLA is powered at 10,000 watts during daylight hours. For two hours after sunrise and two hours before sunset it cuts back to 2,000 watts. For some months of the year, WXLA is authorized to broadcast at 500 watts starting at 6 AM local time under Pre-sunrise authorization. WXLA must sign-off at sunset to protect from interference Class A clear channel station WHAM in Rochester, New York. The transmitter is off Grovenburg Road in Lansing.[2]
