History:
1580 originated as WPMP
(Pascagoula-Moss Point) in the 50's. A daytimer, it's format was mostly
locally oriented towards Jackson County: country at times, easy listening
at others. In the 60's, it gave birth to WPMP FM 99.1, and later changed
to WPMO (Pascagoula-Moss point-Ocean springs?) In the early 90's, the FM
(by now the dominant station on the MS coast) spun off teh AM to a religious
group who recast it as a contemporary Christian outlet.
