WNYV (94.1 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Adult Contemporary format. Licensed to Whitehall, New York, USA, the station serves the Saratoga area. The station is currently owned by Pine Tree Broadcasting Company. WNYV and it's AM sister, WVNR in Poultney, Vermont simultcast 100% of the time and go by the on air slogan of "Lakes Region Radio". WVNR/WNYV are unique in that while stations are authorized to broadcast 24 hours a day, the stations sign off everyday at midnight.

WNYV has arguably the most underated FM broadcast signal in western Vermont, and eastern New York. WNYV throws a strong signal over Glens Falls, Saratoga, Middlebury VT, Brandon VT, and almost reaching into Albany. A small mountain range inhibits the signal from reaching clearly into Rutland, though the signal is very listenable in the west facing hills of Rutland.

WVNR/WNYV are very unusual radio stations in that they are totally staffed live when they are on the air. There is no voice tracking or on-air computers in current use at these radio stations. WVNR/WNYV are very community minded radio stations, and while the format can be catagorized as adult contemporary, the stations play a wide variety of music with the DJ's actually picking the music that is being played. Country, motown, oldies, rock, and top-40 music are all featured on WVNR/WNYV. The stations do local news breaks at the top and bottom of every hour.

WVNR/WNYV broadcast a full complement of local high school sports coverage.
