WJMO (1300 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Cleveland, Ohio, United States, and airs a Spanish/tropical music format known as La Mega Cleveland. Owned by Urban One and operated by La Mega Media, the station serves Greater Cleveland and much of Northeast Ohio. WJMO's studios are located in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood, while the station transmitter resides in North Royalton, Ohio. In addition to a standard analog transmission, the station streams online and is simulcasted on WZAK's second digital subchannel. The station also airs Spanish broadcasts of Cleveland Browns games via the Cleveland Browns Radio Network, and airs Spanish broadcasts of Cleveland Cavaliers home games.
The station was established in 1949 as WERE, initially owned by former Cleveland mayor-turned-broadcaster Ray T. Miller. The WJMO call sign and former urban gospel format were adopted in 2007 after an intellectual property swap between it and 1490 AM in Cleveland Heights. Since November 1, 2024, La Mega Media has operated the station.
