WIWA (1270 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station broadcasting a Christian talk and teaching format. Licensed to Eatonville, Florida, it serves the Greater Orlando radio market. The station is owned by Marc Radio Orlando, LLC.[4] Some of its programs are simulcast with sister station WTMN 1430 AM Gainesville. The two stations have their radio studios and offices on NW 76th Drive in Gainesville.
By day, WIWA is powered at 25,000 watts. But at night, to protect other stations on 1270 AM from interference, it reduces power to 5,000 watts. It uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array. The transmitter is on Brengle Avenue at West New Hampshire Street in Orlando.[5]
