History

edit

The construction permit for WSJG-LP was granted by the FCC on February 12, 2014. Test transmissions began on January 1, 2015 and ended on January 27, 2015 when regular programming commenced.

WSJG airs Catholic programming from EWTN Global Catholic Radio for Tiffin and surrounding communities in Seneca County. Between signing on air and the completion of its local studio in May 2015, the station aired EWTN via an audio feed of Toledo-based Annunciation Radio (originated by WNOC). With the studio in operation, WSJG-LP also began producing local Catholic programming.

Callsign history

edit

The WSJG call letters were previously used briefly in 1991 at a gospel music-formatted station at 104.3 FM in Hamlet, North Carolina which is now WJSG.
