WWWE (1100 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Hapeville, Georgia and serving the Atlanta metropolitan area. It airs an urban adult contemporary/talk/sports radio format and is owned by Beasley Broadcasting Group, Inc. Some hours are paid brokered programming. WWWE is co-owned with WAEC in Atlanta, Georgia.
WWWE is considered as a Class D station according to the Federal Communications Commission. It broadcasts with 5,000 watts of power during the daytime and 3,800 watts during critical hours, using a non-directional antenna. Because AM 1100 is a clear-channel frequency reserved for Class A WTAM in Cleveland, WWWE must sign-off at night to avoid interference. The transmitter is located off Fayetteville Road Southeast, near Interstate 20 in Atlanta.
On August 30, 1996, one Atlanta-area station switched freqencies, making way for another. AM 1100 WLBB Carrollton, Georgia, moved to 1330 kHz and the 1100 kHz signal became the home of a new station, WWWE, licensed to Hapewell. In April 2003, WWWE began carrying the Spanish language evangelical Christian religious format known as "Radio Vida." The station was later re-branded as "La Poderosa 1100 AM," carrying a Mexican ranchera music format. In June 2013, the station was branded as "Radio Fiesta Mexicana" and began carrying a regional Mexican music format.
