WLTA (1400 AM) is a commercial Christian radio station licensed to Alpharetta, Georgia, and serving the Atlanta metropolitan area. It is owned by Salem Communications along with its sister station AM 970 WNIV in Atlanta. WLTA is a full-time simulcast of WNIV's Christian talk and teaching programming.

WLTA broadcasts with 1,000 watts of power, using a non-directional antenna and is considered a Class C station by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). WLTA's transmitter is located on Northwinds Parkway near U.S. Route 19 in Alpharetta.[2] WLTA's broadcast antenna uses a loaded UHF/VHF mast.

The station mainly serves to fill in the gaps in WNIV's nighttime coverage. WNIV must reduce its power to 39 watts at sunset, rendering it all but unlistenable even in Atlanta.
