Long Island En Vivo

📖 About

Long Island En Vivo (WLIM 1440 AM / 93.3 FM) is a commercial Spanish-language news and talk radio station licensed to Medford, New York, serving the Hispanic communities across Suffolk County and central Long Island. Originally signing on in 1994, the 1440 AM frequency operated under various ownerships and local brandings for years before being acquired by Ronkonkoma-based JVC Broadcasting. Prior to its current format, the station operated under diverse programming iterations, including local news/talk, Spanish tropical rhythms, and Christian teaching. In recent years, JVC Media strategically rebranded WLIM as 'Long Island En Vivo', establishing a dedicated Spanish news, talk, and community broadcast network tailored to the region's rapidly growing Latino population. Programming on Long Island En Vivo blends comprehensive regional news, community affairs, local traffic, weather updates, and interactive talk shows with a curated selection of Spanish adult contemporary, oldies, and popular hits spanning the 1970s through the early 2000s. The station prioritizes local civic engagement by hosting community leaders, legal advisors, healthcare experts, and local business owners, serving as a critical information bridge for Spanish-speaking residents throughout Suffolk County. Broadcasting on 1440 AM with a power of 1,000 watts daytime and 196 watts nighttime from its transmitter facility in Medford, New York, WLIM complements its primary AM coverage with FM translator W227CL broadcasting on 93.3 FM. Managed alongside JVC Media's Long Island cluster out of studios in Ronkonkoma, New York, Long Island En Vivo extends its coverage globally through live digital streams, proprietary mobile applications, and online directory portals.
