WDVE

WDVE (102.5 FM) is a classic rock music-formatted radio station in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States at 102.5 MHz.

[1] "WDVE" was derived from the word "Wonderful Dove", the bird of peace, though the station has never had an easy listening, Christian contemporary music, or soft rock format which would soon be more associated with future "Dove"-branded stations like Tampa's WDUV, or WDVV in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Pittsburgh's Pure Rock WDVE 102½ FM, The Radio Station, was set in white text against a black oval background surrounded by vivid rainbow like colors.

Years later, the logo was rendered in white and yellow with red accents against a black background, generally using the slogan 102.5 WDVE Rocks.

In recent years, the station's format has gradually drifted towards classic rock, with current releases rarely incorporated into the playlist.

To fill out the rest of their schedule, the station uses iHeartMedia’s Premium Choice service, which provides additional weekend and overnight dayparts hosted by air talent from across the country.

The rest of the morning show team are newsreader Abby Krizner, sportscaster Mike Prisuta, and comedian Bill Crawford.

On December 31, 2011, iHeartMedia (then known as Clear Channel Communications) announced that Jim Krenn would no longer be part of the DVE Morning show but would still be employed at the station.

According to a statement made by Dennis Lamme, President and Market Manager of Clear Channel Media & Entertainment-Pittsburgh, "We are currently in discussion with Jim about his role with the station moving forward.".

WDVE's studios sit next to Interstate 376 in western Pittsburgh.
