Radio Dial Shuffle: Your Favorite Station May Be Moving Sunday
July 10, 2012
Confusing…that might be the best way to describe what’s happening to radio stations heard in the local area come Sunday afternoon.
Three stations will actually “move”, changing their frequencies at noon Sunday.
K-LOVE, which recently purchased WABB 97.5, will move and be heard on 98.3 FM. After the March 1 change, the format and air staff from WABB went to WABD 104.1.
On Sunday, WABD 104.1 — airstaff, music format and all — will move back home to 97.5 FM.
And, “smooth hits” WDLT 98.3 will move to 104.1 FM at noon Sunday.
The announcements were made Monday on-air at WABD 104.1 and via the station’s Facebook page.

I really loved Jack FM. I loved that it wasn’t all poppy 80s it was the Rock Part of it. I miss it!
What I miss is when they took the oldies station off. I believe it was 107.3. I love the 60’s and 70’s music. Maybe one day it will come back. Until then, I will have to enjoy 94.5 in Phoenix, AZ when we are there for the Winter.
K-Love is a good station if you would take the time to see what it is about. It has all types of christian music, new music! I hope that the reception is better for k-love, because 98.3 did not come in that good here in Atmore.
Now if you really want to hear some great music, listen to Catt Sirten’s “Sunday Jazz Brunch” on 92.1 FM Sundays 8:00 till 2:00. So much better than the crap they call jazz on 99.9.
Great, just when I halfway figured out the last change! It’s sad that radio is not a profitable as it once was, which is why we get all these preprogrammed radio shows and music.
I miss the days of live disc jockeys playing what they wanted. (of course within reason of their station’s format)
Oh well, at least the newest pop music will be back at 97.5 where it belongs.
What this area is lacking is a good 80’s station. I sure do miss “the Jack FM”.
I’ll still enjoy 89.5 and 90.5, yeah me!
Does that mean we will finally have some DECENT music
on the radio in Pensacola?
