WIPR (940 kHz), branded on-air as “Deportes 940 AM”, is a public, non-commercial AM radio station broadcasting a sports radio format. Licensed to San Juan, Puerto Rico, the station is owned by the Puerto Rico Public Broadcasting Corporation. WIPR is the flagship station of the Camarero Radio Network, dedicated to horse racing.
WIPR's audio signal had been simulcast on WIPR-TV channel 6.6 in San Juan & WIPM-TV channel 3.6 in Mayaguez, but was removed on March 20, 2017.
On November 18, 2020, WIPR was granted a construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to move to a new transmitter site and to decrease power to 3,000 watts day and 1,900 watts night but is still broadcasting at 10,000 watts fulltime.
