WVNR (1340 AM) was a radio station licensed to serve Poultney, Vermont. The station was owned by Loud Media. It aired a classic country music format.[2] WVNR and its FM counterpart, 94.1 WNYV in Whitehall, New York, were simulcast 100% of the time.

There is more information about WVNR on the WXLJ page (current call sign of WNYV).

The station signed on with the WVNR call letters by authority of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and they had been in use since February 5, 1981.[3]

On May 5, 2020, it was announced the station had been sold to Loud Media.[4]

On July 25, 2020, Loud Media rebranded the station as "K94.1", playing classic country.[5] The new format and branding replicated its sister station K96.9 KYAP.

On June 20, 2023, Loud Media surrendered the licenses for WVNR and translator W242DF after selling the tower and land in 2022.[6] The FCC cancelled the licenses on June 21, 2023.[7]
