WVOZ (1580 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a News Talk Information format. Licensed to Morovis, Puerto Rico, it serves the Puerto Rico area. The station is part of the WAPA Radio News Network and it is currently owned by Morovis Radio Associates managed by Wilfredo G. Blanco-Pi.

WVOZ was founded in 1974 by local owners. Then in 1981, WVOZ (as WMTI) was purchased by Wifredo G. Blanco-Pi. It was the first station nationwide to operate an experimental synchronous booster at Manati, P.R. in 1987. Blanco-Pi had to sell the station on 1991 to acquire WAPA 680 AM in order to expand the NotiRadio Network. The experience he acquired with WMTI's experimental synchronous booster made him possible to expand the NotiRadio network using this technology. In 1996, WMTI was sold to International Broadcasting Corporation, joining the Cadena Radio Voz network. Blanco-Pi purchases WMTI back in August 1st, 2016, the day that WMTI is Silent, preparing its return to the WAPA Radio News Network. On October 1st, 1580 AM will return to the air, broadcasting the full WAPA Radio schedule. Also on November 11, the station changed its callsign to WVOZ.
