WJLB is a mainstream urban radio station in Detroit, Michigan, that broadcasts on 97.9 MHz, and better known to listeners by the branding ''"FM 98 WJLB."'' WJLB, along with sister WMXD, broadcast for 20 years in Detroit's Penobscot Building in the heart of the financial district. iHeartMedia, Inc. (formerly Clear Channel Communications) moved both stations to a building in Farmington Hills in November 2009. WJLB's transmitter is located in Highland Park near the intersection of Hamilton Avenue and Midland Street, and transmits its signal from an antenna 489 feet in height with an effective radiated power of 50,000 watts. ''"FM 98"'' can be heard far north as Flint, as far east as Chatham, Ontario in Canada, and as far west as Lansing on I-96, and past Jackson west on Interstate 94. ==History== The station traces its origins to a testing station which began operations on May 7, 1941, with 1,000 watts of power at 44.9 megahertz frequency. On May 24, it officially began broadcasting as W49D, Michigan's second FM radio station. It was owned by John Lord Booth, who was born in Detroit on June 13, 1907, and died in Grosse Pointe Farms on November 11, 1994, at the age of 87. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「WJLB」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
