WNRP (1620 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Gulf Breeze, Florida, and serving the Pensacola metropolitan area.[4] The station broadcasts a news/talk radio format and is owned by ADX Communications of Escambia. The radio studios and offices are at 7251 Plantation Road in Pensacola.

By day, WNRP is powered at 10,000 watts, with a non-directional signal. But to minimize interference at night to other stations, it reduces power to 1,000 watts.[5] In November 2016, NewsRadio 1620 began simulcasting on FM using two 250-watt FM translators: W222BR at 92.3 in Pensacola and on W237BE at 95.3 (to serve I-10 & north) in Clear Springs, Alabama.[6] WNRP can also be heard on WYCT - CatCountry 98.7's HD3 channel.
