WXGL (107.3 FM) is a commercial radio station licensed to St. Petersburg, Florida, and serving the Tampa Bay Area. It is owned by Cox Media Group and calls itself "The Eagle". WXGL airs a classic hits radio format that leans toward classic rock, primarily from the 1980s and 1990s, although occasionally going older. Unlike rival classic hits station WRBQ-FM, The Eagle does not play pop or dance music from artists such as Madonna or Michael Jackson. WXGL broadcasts in the HD Radio format.

WXGL's studios are located in St. Petersburg on 4th Street North.[2] The transmitter site is off Burbank Road in Oldsmar.[3]
