  WVWA-FM - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WVWA FM "Viva 105.7" is a Clear Channel Communications radio station operating in south metro Atlanta, and having Peachtree City, Georgia as its city of license.
Unrelated to the real WVWA, the callsign was also infamously used for a 1974 parody of Top 40 radio called "Nine" [1], setting it as an AM station in Pound Ridge, New York.

 WWVA-FM - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WVWA FM ("Viva 105.7") is an Atlanta radio station, that plays Spanish top 40.
This station began simulcasting on 96.7 (formerly "the Buzz", now "Viva 96.7") on May 17, and that station's callsign has been changed to WVWA FM (an anagram of WWVA, with the two middle letters transposed).
Its far-northeastern simulcast on WHEL FM 105.1 in Helen, Georgia was sold in 2005, and has since changed formats to Rock AC.

Among radio enthusiasts, WVWA (900) is best remembered for its early-seventies experiment with the "Nine!" format, a high-energy, monosyllabic top-40 mix that paved the way for the Qs and Zs and Kisses and Blinks (especially, one suspects, the Blinks) for generations to come.
One WVWA staffer of the era recalls an argument in the hallway of Broadcasting Acres between Leonard and Armstrong.
In the meantime, Leonard had finally won a TV construction permit, and in the summer of 1954 the old FM antenna and transmitter were modified (with parts from a DuMont television set, a Federal FM transmitter and a John Logie Baird Nipkow-disc-era British transmitter) for the debut of WVWA-TV, channel 79.

The station is without DJ's at this time, but it is not know if the DJ's who were at 96.7 will stay on board, nor if "Loveline" will remain on the station.
