WLLL (930 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Lynchburg, Virginia. It broadcasts an urban gospel radio format and is owned and operated by Hubbard's Advertising Agency, Inc.[2] The radio studios and offices are on Whitehall Road in Lynchburg.
By day, WLLL is powered at 9,000 watts non-directional. But to protect other stations on 930 AM from interference, WLLL reduces power at night to only 42 watts. The transmitter is on Chapel Lane in Lynchburg, near the Lynchburg Expressway (U.S. Route 501).[3]
History
