We calculate the masses and weak decay constants of flavorless ground andradially excited $J^P=1^-$ mesons and the corresponding quantities for the K^*,within a Poincar\'e covariant continuum framework based on the Bethe-Salpeterequation. We use in both, the quark's gap equation and the meson bound-stateequation, an infrared massive and finite interaction in the leadingsymmetry-preserving truncation. While our numerical results are in rather goodagreement with experimental values where they are available, no singleparametrization of the QCD inspired interaction reproduces simultaneously theground and excited mass spectrum, which confirms earlier work on pseudoscalarmesons. This feature being a consequence of the lowest truncation, we pin downthe range and strength of the interaction in both cases to identify commonqualitative features that may help to tune future interaction models beyond therainbow-ladder approximation.
