WKDV is a Regional Mexican formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Chantilly, Virginia, serving Northern Virginia.[4] WKDV is owned and operated by Metro Radio, Inc.[5]
The station was silent for most of the period from December 2020 to March 2022, after the 11-acre (4.5 ha) site in Manassas, Virginia, which had hosted the broadcast towers since the 1960s was sold.[6] It has since moved to a new tower in Fair Lakes, Virginia.[5]
Former format
[edit | edit source]In the 1990s, the station was a Radio AAHS affiliate, which played children's music.[7]
Translator
[edit | edit source]In addition to the main station, WKDV is relayed by an FM translator to widen its broadcast area.
