An AM radio station licensed to Kahului, Hawaii, operating on 1240 kHz under the brand name "Wowie 97.9" — a reference shared with an associated FM translator. The station is owned by Akamai Broadcasting and currently carries an oldies format. Its FCC construction permit was granted on February 10, 2015, making it an unusual example of a new 5,000-watt AM facility at a time when new AM licenses had become uncommon due to spectrum scarcity on the band. The station previously broadcast a Hawaiian music format under the name "The Spirit." In 2024, Visionary Related Entertainment sold its portfolio of Maui stations, including this property, to Akamai Broadcasting. Following the ownership transfer, on December 9, 2024, the station changed its format to oldies, adopting the Wowie 97.9 branding. The station serves the Maui market, providing classic popular music programming to listeners on the island.
