WRVP (1310 AM) is a Spanish language Christian music and teaching station, licensed to Mount Kisco, New York. The station is owned by Radio Vision Cristiana Management.[2]
Historically, WVIP was an AM station in Mt. Kisco NY. Founded in 1957, it operated on 1310 kHz with a power of 500w. The demise of the station was a tragic overnight fire on 10 September 1997, destroying the notable studio-in-the-round. When owner Martin Stone arrived to view the damage, he was so shocked that he required hospitalization. Despite community outpouring to keep the station on the air, Stone announced on the 14th that WVIP would go dark. (cf. "The Airwaves of New York", McFarland & Company, Inc. Publishers)
