WBAE and WVAE are radio stations that serve Southern Maine with an adult standards format provided by Dial Global's Adult Standards (America's Best Music) service (they formerly used the Music of Your Life network). WBAE is licensed in Portland, Maine, while WVAE is licensed in Biddeford, Maine. Both stations are owned by Saga Communications.

Until 1999, WBAE had the WPOR call sign and was a simulcast of sister station WPOR-FM. WVAE was formerly known as WIDE, and had been under separate ownership; Saga bought it in 2003 to improve the station's signal.

WBAE and WVAE also have an affiliation with ABC News Radio, and are the local outlets for Paul Harvey, Portland Pirates and the Portland Sea Dogs.

The WVAE calls were used at 92.3 FM in Detroit, Michigan in the late 1980s, with a new age/jazz format as "The Wave." Both the callsign and nickname were also used a decade later at 94.9 FM in Cincinnati, Ohio.
