KVDW (branded as Vern 1530AM) is a radio station serving the Little Rock metropolitan area with southern gospel and talk programming.
The station broadcasts on AM frequency 1530 kHz and is currently owned by Alvin Simmons, through licensee Habibi's Broadcasting, Inc.
Because it shares the same frequency as "clear channel" station WCKY-AM in Cincinnati, Ohio; KVDW operates only during daytime hours.
