WREN (AM)

WREN (590 AM, "The Mighty 590") was an American radio station licensed to serve the community of Carrollton, Alabama, USA. The station began broadcasting in 1951 as "WRAG" and fell permanently dark in 2010 due to economic and other issues. The WREN broadcast license was cancelled by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in September 2011.

The station's license was last held by Serendipity Ventures II, LLC. Before falling silent, it had most recently broadcast a traditional Black Gospel music format branded as "The Mighty 590". Over the six decades of its operation, WRAG had also aired Top 40, country, and rhythm and blues music formats.
