WVLD (1450 AM and 106.9 FM) better known as "WVLD Rock 106.9" is a radio station broadcasting a classic rock format. Licensed to Valdosta, Georgia, USA, the station serves the Valdosta area. The station is currently owned by Black Crow Media.[3][4]

As of 9/1/15, WVLD 1450 was once again simulcasting their signal on 106.9 FM. The Black Crow Media rock station (formerly WWRQ Rock 108 - 107.9) was moved to WVLD and rebranded at 'WVLD Rock 106.9'. Lineup highlights include 'The Morning Riot with Jay & Ed' 6am-10am and 'Hard Drive XL with Lou Brutus' at night.

As of 02/11/08 WVLD 1450 started simulcasting their signal on 106.9 FM and branded themselves under that frequency. They have also shifted their weekday programming lineup away from all ESPN to now include ESPN's Mike and Mike in the Morning, the Neal Boortz Show, the Clark Howard Show, and the Dave Ramsey Show. On the weekends, WVLD still carries ESPN Radio. However, they now brand themselves as "106.9 FM WVLD" instead of former "ESPN 1450". [citation needed]

On February 1, 2013 WVLD changed their format to classic rock, branded as "The Eagle".
