WDVH (980 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Gainesville, Florida. It airs an urban oldies radio format and it is owned by MARC Radio. In morning drive time, it carries the nationally syndicated Rickey Smiley Show.

By day, WDVH is powered at 5,000 watts, non-directional. To protect other stations on 980 AM from interference, at night it greatly reduces power to 166 watts. Programming is also heard on 250 watt FM translator W231DH at 94.1 MHz in Gainesville. The translator's dial position is used in WDVH's moniker, "R&B 94.1."
