KWOE (1240 kHz, "Wowie 97.9") is an AM radio station licensed to the city of Kahului, Hawaii. Owned by Akamai Broadcasting, it carries an oldies format.
History
[edit]Its first license was granted by the FCC on February 10, 2015. New 5,000 watt AM radio stations are unusual in 2015; frequencies on the AM band are scarce.[2]
The station previously carried a Hawaiian music format as The Spirit. In 2024, Visionary Related Entertainment sold all of its Maui stations to Akamai Broadcasting.[3] On December 9, 2024, the station flipped to oldies as Wowie 97.9.[4]
