WLVJ (1040 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a Spanish talk radio format. Licensed to Boynton Beach, Florida, USA. The station's broadcast license is currently held by Actualidad 1040AM Licensee, LLC.^[1]

History

Boynton Beach's first AM radio station was WZZZ, which broadcast with a Top 40 format on 1510 kHz. By the early 1970s WZZZ had gone out of existence; it was eventually replaced by a newly licensed station on 1510 using the call sign WKAO. In the 1980s WKAO moved to 1040 kHz. WKAO changed its call letters to WYFX on May 3, 1986. Subsequently the station changed its call sign to WJNA on November 1, 1996, to WJNO on September 22, 1997, to WBZT on March 6, 2000, back to WJNA on December 20, 2000, and to the current WLVJ on January 7, 2003.^[2] The station was home to the Jewish program "Shalom South Florida" and the long-running oldies specialty show "Ken Held's Doo-Wop Shop."

On January 24, 2012, the FCC approved the transfer of the WLVJ broadcast license from James-Crystal Radio's subsidiary, JCE Licenses LLC, to a company known as Actualidad 1040AM Licensee, LLC.^[3] Prior to the sale to Actualidad 1040AM Licensee, LLC., the station aired a Christian format branded "Family Values Radio".
