WVUV (648 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a Hot Adult Contemporary format. Licensed to Leone, American Samoa, it serves the greater American Samoa area. The station is currently owned by South Seas Broadcasting Inc.
WVUV is a sister station to NBC TV station KKHJ-LP, which went by the WVUV-LP callsign until 2008.
After being deleted from the FCC database in January 2005 after a period of inactivity, the station was relicensed and re-assigned the WVUV call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on May 5, 2006.[1]
The station has filed an application with the FCC to change broadcast frequencies from 648 kHz to 720 kHz.[2] This would include a reduction in power from 10,000 watts day and night to 5,000 watts during the day and 2,000 watts at night. The antenna would also move to 14°20'23"S, 170°46'21"W.
