Frequency Swap
On October 4, 2007, the WJBY call sign was moved from 930 AM to 1350 AM while sister station WGAD in Gadsden had its call sign moved from 1350 AM to 930 AM. In October 2010, the stations began the process to regain their original (prior to 2007) call letters. The station on 930 AM went dark on October 10, 2010, and regained the "WJBY" call sign on January 19, 2011. WJBY resumed normal broadcast operations on September 12, 2011. On September 20, 2012, the station changed its call sign back to WGAD.

Famous quotes containing the words frequency and/or swap:
“The frequency of personal questions grows in direct proportion to your increasing girth. . . . No one would ask a man such a personally invasive question as “Is your wife having natural childbirth or is she planning to be knocked out?” But someone might ask that of you. No matter how much you wish for privacy, your pregnancy is a public event to which everyone feels invited.”
—Jean Marzollo (20th century)
“If we should swap a good library for a second-rate stump speech and not ask for boot, it would be thoroughly in tune with our hearts. For deep within each of us lies politics. It is our football, baseball, and tennis rolled into one. We enjoy it; we will hitch up and drive for miles in order to hear and applaud the vitriolic phrases of a candidate we have already reckoned we’ll vote against.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
