WFGA (106.7 FM) is an American FM radio station licensed to Hicksville, Ohio, United States, with studios in Auburn, Indiana. The station broadcasts a Hot Adult Contemporary format with a slight Classic Hits orientation, branded as "Froggy 106.7." WFGA-FM is owned by Fallen Timbers Communications, a subsidiary company of Federated Media.

The station began broadcasting on January 25, 2002, under the WFJZ call sign (Fort Wayne's [Smooth] Jazz), with a satellite-fed Smooth Jazz format targeting the Fort Wayne market as a rimshot. Due to its poor signal in Fort Wayne proper, WFJZ was never very successful, and on May 27, 2005, with "Joy to the World" by Three Dog Night, the station debuted its current format and call sign after two days of stunting with construction sounds. Although its city of license is in Ohio, WFGA now primarily concentrates on serving the Auburn and Garrett area in northeastern Indiana, where its signal is much stronger than in Fort Wayne. A construction permit was recently granted which will allow WFGA to build a new tower and re-locate it's transmitter facilities to Butler, Indiana. This is expected to improve coverage in communities such as Kendallville and Angola, both located in northeast Indiana.

The station currently does not broadcast any digital (HD) programming.
