WZXV (99.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Christian radio format. Licensed to Palmyra, New York, United States, the station serves the Rochester area and, through a network of translators, most of central New York and the Genesee Valley. The network previously had translators in Western New York but sold the two translators there in 2025, as other Calvary Chapels have a radio presence there. [2] The station is currently owned by Calvary Chapel of the Finger Lakes, Inc.

The station operates as a noncommercial religious station; the main frequency and all of its translators are nonetheless in the commercial FM band, above 92 MHz. The translators operate on an unusual "daisy chain" configuration where distant translators receive the signal from another, closer translator instead of directly from WZXV, allowing the network to cover a broader area.
