WEUP (1700 AM) is an urban contemporary gospel and urban adult contemporary formatted radio station that serves Huntsville, Alabama, and the majority of the Tennessee Valley in North Alabama, United States.[2] WEUP is dubbed "Huntsville's Heritage Station" because it was the first in the region to broadcast an urban format. It has an urban contemporary sister station called WEUP-FM. The station's studios and transmitter are both co-located along Jordan Lane (SR 53) in Northwest Huntsville. WEUP is simulcast on WEUV (1190 AM) in Moulton, Alabama.
