WJLV
WJLV (94.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a contemporary Christian music format from K-LOVE. Licensed to Jackson, Mississippi, the station is currently owned by the Educational Media Foundation (EMF).
In 1978, WKXI became WTYX. From September, 1978 to March, 1990, WTYX' format was Top 40/CHR, and had been branded 94TYX (TYX was pronounced tiks).
In March, 1990, WTYX flipped to oldies, and was branded Oldies 94.
In September, 1994, WTYX flipped to all rock & roll oldies and had been branded Arrow 94.
In 2002, local ownership of WTYX ended. Proteus Investments sold WTYX (as well as its sister station, WVIV) to the Jacksonville-based Backyard Broadcasting.
On Friday, September 3, 2004 (at 3pm CDT), under the direction of program director Russ Schell, WTYX flipped to adult hits. The station had been branded 94-7 Jack FM. On September 14 of that year, the call sign had been changed to WWJK. It was the first US Jack FM station east of the Mississippi River.
Schell left WWJK in 2005. He was replaced by Don Wayne. Angela Roland managed the traffic.
In July, 2008, after six years in the Jackson radio market, Backyard Broadcasting sold WWJK to Meridian-based New South Radio. But the deal was called off shortly thereafter.
