WLTI is an adult contemporary station in Syracuse, New York branded as Lite Rock 105.9. It broadcasts on FM frequency 105.9 MHz and is under ownership of Citadel Broadcasting.

For many years, the station has been largely automated for most of the day. The station has one local jock, Dave Allen, whose shift ends at 8:20 a.m. After Allen, the station is automated until 7 p.m, when Delilah airs on the station.

On some years, although not all, WLTI changes its format to Christmas music, and in years it does not, it instead provides an online Christmas music stream through its Web site. WLTI has announced that its "ho ho" programming for 2007 would begin at midnight on October 31, 26 hours before usual "first-in-the-nation" KOSY-FM in Utah changed over. However, the move turned out to be a prank and a giveaway of Ho Hos, not an early format change.

WLTI streams its programming on the Internet.

The WLTI callsign was once used on a radio station in Detroit, Michigan from 1985-1996 (now WDRQ) and coincidentally had an adult contemporary format.
