WCAA, known on-air as 105.9/92.7 La Kalle, is a radio station licensed to Newark, New Jersey that airs in the New York City metropolitan area. Broadcasting at 105.9 FM, the station has a reggaeton format. WZAA's transmitter is located in Queens, New York, right along the Nassau County line. It Is The New York Afflilate Of Univision's La Kalle Brand.

The station first came on the air in the 1960s as WHBI, which was originally owned by Hoyt Brothers Inc.. In the 1980s, the station - by then property of Multicultural Radio Broadcasting - went by the call letters WNWK, and aired leased-access ethnic programming.

In 1998, the station, under new ownership, started playing hit Spanish music as "Caliente 105.9," with the call letters WCAA. A year later, the station changed its slogan to "Latino Mix 105.9". In early 2004, the station's owner, Univision Communications bought the 92.7 FM frequency in Garden City, New York which was the home of WLIR-FM and made it a western Long Island simulcast of 105.9 under the call letters WZAA. Some criticized this move due to the fact that there are sections of the signal of 92.7 which overlap with the weak signal (in relation to other New York City stations) of 105.9.

On May 27, 2005, WCAA adapted its current reggaeton format. La Kalle means 'the street' but spelled with a K.

The Station's HD2 Station, Which It Was Launched In 2006, Airs The Original "Caliente/Latino Mix" Format (The Tropical Music Format).

In The Summer of 2006, Univision Launched The National Affliates Page For Its "La Kalle" Stations Around The United States, The Mini-Page Also Includes Quick-Links To Live Audio Streams Of Other La Kalle Stations Including This Affillated Station.

Also In Mid-2006, The Station Adopted Its Current Slogan "Yo Soy La Kalle!", Thus Replacing The "Reggeaton y Mas" Slogan From Its Format Change. The New Slogan Is Also Part Of A Nationwide Promotinal Campaign That Univision Adopted For Most Of Its Other La Kalle Affliates.
