WCCV FM 91.7 ("Praise FM") is a radio station licensed to serve the city of Cartersville, Georgia. It is owned by and is the flagship station of Immanuel Broadcasting Network, also based in Cartersville. The station plays Christian music.
The station transmits from Mullinax Mountain, between Euharlee and Wax, Georgia, due west of Cartersville and southeast of Rome (which is slightly closer), the same location for which WTSH-FM 107.1 applied to move to in early May 2012. Although very close to WCLK FM 91.9 in Atlanta, it can still be heard in parts of northwest and south metro Atlanta via broadcast translators.
WCCV is also simulcast on sister station WJCK FM 88.3, licensed to Piedmont, Alabama. That station had no translators assigned to it until 2010, when W257CM FM 99.3 was licensed to the northeast of Talladega, Alabama. That translator is now assigned to WHPH FM 97.7 in the Birmingham, Alabama area. Since W257CM is still listed on the IBN website, but WHPH is not, it is unclear what it is currently broadcasting.
WCCV also now airs in metro Atlanta on WUBL FM 94.9, HD Radio channel 2. It was stated in on-air announcements on WCCV in mid June 2011 that this was "at no cost to the ministry". This simulcast is also now the official source for two of its translator stations: W265AV and W221CG.
