Owned by iHeartMedia, the station serves the Atlanta metropolitan area. Besides a standard analog transmission, WWPW broadcasts over three HD Radio channels, and is available online via iHeartRadio.〔http://www.hdradio.com/stations/Georgia-GA/Atlanta-5〕 The station operates from studios located at the Peachtree Palisades building in the Brookwood Hills district of Atlanta. The station transmits from the west tower at the North Druid Hills site along Briarcliff Road, just west of Emory University and Clifton Road. According to FCC records for coordinates and height, it shares its main radio antenna with WUBL FM 94.9, and WWPW's low-power backup antenna about lower is also the backup for WYAY FM 106.7. The main WWPW/WUBL antenna has a permit to move to the east tower. There are also several other stations on these towers. ==History== The 96.1 frequency was originally WGAA-FM in Cedartown, Georgia, the FM counterpart to WGAA AM 1340. WKLS's callsign stands for the initials of the founding owners: Don Kennedy, James Lathom, and Arthur Swan ("K", "L", and "S"). They formed the station in 1960 with a $25,000 investment, selling it ten years later for $750,000. In its first 12 years or so, the station played an easy listening format; in its first five or six years, all voice-tracking was recorded by Kennedy (who now hosts and syndicates "Big Band Jump" nationwide). By 1972, WKLS was more of a then-AM-style middle of the road outlet with live DJs; its main slogan by then was "WKLS...That's 'Klass'". WKLS changed to a rock music format in 1974 and was renamed "96 Rock", the branding it retained until November 2006. WKLS also had an AM daytimer from 1977 well into the mid-1980s, on the station that is now WNIV AM 970. While that station was WKLS, the FM side had callsign WKLS-FM until May 1988. The following year, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) database shows it as having callsign WEOA for a month from November to December, however this may be a mistake. 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「WWPW」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
