WCEV (1450 AM) is a radio station licensed to Cicero, Illinois, serving the greater Chicago area. Owned by Migala Communications, it airs a brokered ethnic programming format.

Since 1980 the 1450 frequency allocated to Cicero has been shared by two separately owned stations, after two companies that had filed competing license applications for the facility reached an agreement to divide the broadcast week between them. WCEV is on the air from 1PM to 10PM Monday through Friday; Midway Broadcasting, which has operated as WXOL, WVON and WRLL, broadcasts on 1450 during the remaining hours.
