Radio station WJLD has moved its transmitter from Bessemer to Red Mountain in Birmingham, and this was July 21, 1952. That’s very helpful. “The spokesman from the station said it will maintain offices and studio at its present location on the Bessemer Superhighway but that all broadcasting facilities will be located in Birmingham.” So what that leads me to believe, and this is kind of interesting, we do have a picture of the studio building on Bessemer Superhighway with a Buick parked in the driveway and the license plate says 1954, so it is possible that WJLD was operating in some way out of both locations at the same time even as late as 1954, but certainly we had some relation to that building, because that date was on the license plate.

Title A name given to the resource Clippings, Birmingham News Radio Logs Description An account of the resource Box 3 Folder 1: "Ok, we’re in box number 3. Birmingham News radio logs. This is folder number 1 from February of 1954. Tues/Wed, February 23/24th and Sat/Sun, February 2728th. We’re interested, of course, in looking at WEDR, WJLD, and WBCO, the three contending stations for the black listener. Although apparently I left off SGN, but SGN was broadcasting black programming, as we know. As was VOK. But we’re looking at those that were more black-oriented during the week and during the full clock. So WEDR, which is misrepresented as 1260; it was 1220. WCRT was 1260 at one time, and they swapped them out. They made a mistake. On WEDR on February 23rd there’s a lot; I guess, they're a day timer. They’re silent after 5 PM. Eddie Castleberry is mentioned on EDR pretty much and Elder Moore was probably…. Oh I can’t think of his full name, but we have pictures of him I believe at EDR. WJLD had Duke Rumore, had Roy Wood doing commentary, Willie McKinstry. The Atomic Boogie Hour was on but we don’t know who was doing it. It might have been Duke Rumore because his name appears right at the bottom of it. Hardrock Gunter's Record Roundup is mentioned. He was pretty much country but had a big hit with "Birmingham Bounce." None of his bio's list him at WJLD so maybe this was pre-recorded on transcription discs. Or maybe he was at WJLD briefly. WBCO's familiar line-up included Sugar Daddy Dawkins, Gar Grace, King Porter and Erskine Faush. Sunday, the 28th, a lot of religious programming. Gospel Cavalcade is on with Erskine Faush. I noticed "Juke the Duke" on Sunday, "Music for Mom." Wonder what that was like.. We have a picture of him somewhere. So now I'm thinking he was a weekend man. A lot of familiar names closing out WJLD February 27th Saturday evening. Seems like they turned gospel early. Doesn't appear yet that WJLD is matching Black programming the way WEDR and WBCO are."

One indicates that certain FCC licenses of ten radio stations were held up and WJLD, WJLN was one of them in Alabama. One of them in, I should say, was in Birmingham. That was WJLD. Now, a lot of these stations are cited for having no blacks and few women. WJLD, WJLN Birmingham, which had 23 full time employees, 10 blacks and 10 women in ‘71 and 21 full time, 9 blacks, 5 women in ‘72, they were cited for a decline in blacks and women. Now that’s interesting that the license would be held up for a slight variance like that. Today it probably wouldn’t be noticed, but back then it was very close to the Civil Rights Act being passed and the ERA Women's Movement was getting underway nationally. The second article indicates a dispute between WENN and WJLD over WENN refusing to make advertising time available to someone with ties to WJLD. Secondly, Hertz Broadcasting was alleged to have broadcast information about available lotteries which was against FCC regs. Found at Birmingham library archives." 1970s FCC WENN WJLD WJLN
