History[]
WJTB first went on the air on September 16, 1984.[2] In February 2012, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) fined WJTB $10,000 for failing to maintain a management and staff presence at its main studio.[3] On June 2, 2017, the station's license was canceled for not paying debts it owed to the FCC.[4]
