WWSA-LP is an Oldies formatted broadcast radio station licensed to St. Albans, West Virginia, serving St. Albans, Cross Lanes, Nitro, and Tornado in West Virginia.[1] WWSA-LP is owned and operated by City of St. Albans.[4]

Programming and Studios

Along with the station's Oldies format, WWSA-LP also broadcasts features regarding the history of St. Albans.[1] Interviews with "individuals who have historical backgrounds related to the city" are also heard on the station.[1]

The Museum of Radio and Technology, located in nearby Huntington, West Virginia, donated equipment to the station and built a "vintage studio" in the St. Albans City Hall.[1][5] The station initially operated from a "broom closet" at the City Municipal Building.[1] In 2017, the studio was moved to the St. Albans Chamber of Commerce at 412 6th Avenue.
