WWNN
WWNN (1470 kHz) is a radio station licensed to Pompano Beach, Florida, United States, and serving Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. The station is owned by Shekinah Radio International, LLC, and known as Radio Shekinah International. By day, WWNN is powered at 30,000 watts. It uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array to avoid interfering with stations in the Miami area on 1450 and 1490 kHz. At night, to further reduce interference to other stations, the power is reduced to 2,500 watts. The transmitter is on NW 44th Street, near Florida's Turnpike, in Tamarac. The 1470 frequency has had a varied history, being built in 1959 as WPOM by Gold Coast Broadcasters. It changed its call sign to WRBD in 1963 and oriented itself toward the Black community in Broward County and was the market's first Black-owned station. Citing low ratings and competition from FM outlets, its owners sold it in 1997 to Howard Goldsmith. Goldsmith moved the "Winners News Network" format of health talk and personal motivation programming from the previous WWNN at 980 kHz. Beasley Broadcast Group retained the format when it acquired the station in 2000; in 2019, when two of its sister stations were sold, WWNN took on the financial talk programming previously heard on WSBR (740 AM). Beasley sold WWNN in 2022, marking the first of five sales in two years; in one transaction, the station's two associated FM translators were separated. Shekinah Radio acquired WWNN in 2023.
