History

The station went on the air as WHRS on December 26, 1985. On August 1, 1994, the station changed its call sign to WLNT, on January 19, 1996 to WINH, and on August 5, 1997 to the current WMJR.[2]

Translator

WMJR has an FM translator in Lexington on 94.9 MHz. Its call letters are W235AK. It broadcasts with an effected radiated power of 250 watts and its antenna is 468 feet (142.7 meters) in height above average terrain elevation. This FM translator station was put into place to allow the broadcast of WMJR to be heard throughout metropolitan Lexington at night, as the AM signal is greatly deteriorated at night. Additionally, the sound quality of WMJR broadcasts is much greater on the FM translator than on the AM frequency. Individuals who may prefer the FM band over the AM band now have a way to listen to WMJR without leaving the FM band.
