History:
-
This station was originally
on 1510, but moved to 930 for more daytime coverage. Before the calls changed
to WEZZ in July 2007, this was WYNI. The station had a pending application
in 2007/8 for a move to the New Orleans suburb of Harahan, with an 11kW
directional daytime-only signal on 1190 kHz. It is being reported
that this station has been off the air since being purchased by Great South
Wireless.
-
The application to move
to Harahan never came to fruition, and a construction permit popped up
in April 2009 for the station to move to 920 kHz, with a move to Brantley,
Alabama. The transmitter site is just east of Luverne, and the permit shows
just 450 watts day and critical hours.
