93.9 WRXW is now airing the Christian CHR “Air-1” programming, while 94.7 WWJK becomes Christian AC “K-Love“. The 93.9 brand will remain online, as the former PD of WRXW, Brad Stevens has acquired the intellectual property of the station which will continue to operate at Rock939.com.
Original Report 11/6: Backyard Broadcasting has agreed to sell Active Rock “Rock 93.9” WRXW and Variety Hits “94.7 Jack-FM” WWJK Jackson, MS to EMF Broadcasting.
EMF, owners of the Christian AC “K-Love” and Christian CHR “Air 1” networks will flip the stations to those networks upon closing of the sale. K-Love is currently heard in the Jackson market on 100.9 WJXN, which is operated under an LMA from Flinn Broadcasting.
