WJSB Translator

I thought I read somewhere that WJSB Crestview was going to split from the simulcast and would have a FM translator. Can anyone confirm this.
 
All I know is that WJSB-AM is thier sister station WAAZ-FM (104.7) both carries CBS Radio and Atlanta Braves Radio Network. I thought WAAZ-FM is a 24 hour station but i guess not the Wikipedia saids that
The station is off the air from 12am to 5am Monday through Saturday and 12am to 7am on Sunday because the station is 100 percent live with no automation.
 
yeah, someone posted about a year ago that WJSB was about to split away from the WAAZ simulcast but nothing ever happened. I never read about a translator, but that would make sense... someone should be able to squeeze one into Crestview.

Louis: WAAZ and WJSB aren't just sister stations... WAAZ is unique as one of the last surviving FM simulcasts of an old daytimer AM station. 100 kw, WAAZ, simulcast WJSB all day until WJSB signs off at sunset... then WAAZ continues playing country music until Midnight when they sign off the FM. It could be considered a "big deal" if WJSB launches it's own format because it would end the 100kw FM simulcast of the AM station... a sign that the 1970's may finally be coming to an end. :'(

Does anyone know of any other FM's in the southeast still simulcasting their old AM frequency? (not including newer news/talk simulcast stations like WSB or WWL on FM)
