East Alabama 930 WGAD

[Mike in Destin]

Anyone know what happened to their signal? Used to hear them well here in Destin, FL at night. Loved their oldies format. Can't get them at all now.

The AM has been off the air for years and years. They are just running a translator. 1350 has been off for years as well.

 

[Mike in Destin]

Thanks for the info!

Are you saying they don't have the AM on the air but have their translator on the air with the programming the AM station normally airs?

 

[Iamtheradiopro]

Yes and what AM. It's been off the air for almost a decade. The translator has been running
illegally the entire time.

Did someone dig up Brett Elmore? (Too soon?)

WGAD 930 is back on the air. I heard the station air the TOH ID whiie I was listening in my car this afternoon. Their FM translator was also given during the ID.

What format? Same as before?

Sounds like classic hits. Seems like that was the format they had previously.

Been listening to 930 and haven't heard WGAD. Currently hearing a very weak country station. Anyone know who that might be? North/South direction.

I heard their ID. It's WMGR Bainbridge, GA
500 watts 2 towers. 146 miles give or take.

WGAD was broadcasting on AM 930 today (5/22) and is (at least for now) on the air. I heard the station station in my car this morning around 8 am.

Thanks! I'll see if I can hear them tonight.
