Orlando Radio: WONQ Launches Salsa VIVA-FM


Q Broadcasting in Florida has launched VIVA FM, a 100% Salsa format for the Orlando market.

It will be carried on a simulcast/combo of WONQ 1030 AM and Translator W258DD 99.5 FM, with coverage of Orange, Osceola, Brevard, Polk, and parts of Volusia, as well as digital platforms.

WONQ 1030 AM (45 Kw-D, 1.7 Kw-N
COO/VP and PD  of Q Broadcasting George Mier stated: “This format has been heavily researched and a winner in selected markets over the years. A few stations have dabbled with it, but besides playing some Hits, I believe many have not achieved the format’s fullest potential, principally for failing to fully commit and understand the audience and essence of the format, beyond the music.

"Salsa has long been a Heritage format with a highly emotional connection with listeners from most of Latin American countries, due to its standard legacy of Hits that has spanned over 50 years. The station will be the only 100% Salsa format in the state of Florida and the continental US. We, at Q Broadcasting are proven experts of the Salsa genre in Puerto Rico and the US. Orlando Salsa lovers are about to get a really nice treat”.
