WEAV is an English-language American radio station in Plattsburgh, New York, with studios in Colchester, Vermont. The station broadcasts a talk format.

Owned and operated by Vox Communications, the station broadcasts on 960 kHz with a power of 5,000 watts as a class B station, using a directional antenna with slightly different daytime and nighttime directional patterns in order to protect various other stations on that frequency. Both daytime and the tighter nighttime patterns of WEAV are directed mostly to the north and west of Plattsburgh, with not a lot of signal strength reaching deep into Vermont. WEAV's programming is also simulcast in WTSJ (1320) in Randolph, Vermont.

Previously, the station broadcast the talk programming in a simulcast with sister station WXZO; because of the station's patterns, WEAV's signal had been the perfect complement to the WXZO signal, reaching well into the much larger metro area of Montréal, Québec. The simulcast was broken up in September 2008, when WXZO switched to an oldies format; however, the two stations continue to simulcast "First Light" and "Imus in the Morning".
