History:
This station started off as WATM 1590 in Atmore. It was originally on 1580, then moved to 1590 to get a power increase. Sold in the 70's and became WSKR (Kicker). Then became a mere AM stepchild of it's class C FM that evolved as a major Mobile/Pensacola player, WIZD in the 80's. Then it spun off to a religious group who renamed it WGYJ (We Give You Jesus), then moved from 1590 into the expanded band (in stereo) to 1620 as WPHG (We Proclaim His Glory).
Around April, this station went dark. No telling if they'll be back on the air anytime soon.
