WENI-FM is an American FM radio station licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to operate on 92.7 MHz to serve the community of South Waverly, Pennsylvania (located south of Waverly, New York). Starting in early 2010, the then-WPHD moved to Comfort Hill in Town of Ashland, NY, just south of Elmira, NY. WENI-FM is located on the same radio tower as WPHD, Elmira, NY. WENI-FM now has one of the strongest signals in Chemung County, NY and the greater Elmira, New York area.

At one time, the call sign WPHD was assigned to FM station WMTT in Tioga, PA, but changed in 2005. WMTT is still the sister station of WPHD. WMTT is co-located within the WPHD studios located on Chemung Street in Horseheads, New York.

In 2017, owner Europa Communications filed to swap the license for WPHD to Sound Communications in exchange for the license to WENY-FM.[1] The station swap was consummated on November 15, 2017, along with the formats. Additionally, the stations swapped call signs on November 20, 2017. On December 8, 2017, WENY-FM moved from 96.1 FM to 92.7 FM. The station swapped call signs with its Big Flats, New York-based sister station on December 27, 2017, assuming the WENI-FM call sign.
