WPWA (1590 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a Spanish Religious format. Licensed to Chester, Pennsylvania, USA, it serves the Philadelphia area. The station is currently owned by Mount Ocean Media, L.L.C..

During the mid-1990s the station was the Philadelphia affiliate of the "Radio AAHS" network, airing children's programming. After Radio AAHS discontinued operations in January 1998, Children's Broadcasting Corporation, WPWA's owner, needed programming for the ten CBC-owned and operated Radio AAHS stations until it could find buyers. In February 1998, WPWA, along with the other nine CBC stations, became an outlet for "Beat Radio", which broadcast electronic dance music 12 hours a day until late October 1998.
