WLOD (1140 AM), is a daytime-only radio station broadcasting a classic country radio format. It is licensed to Loudon, Tennessee, just southwest of Knoxville, and is owned by Blount Broadcasting Corporation. On October 14, 2021 at 15:30, WLOD began broadcasting programming from it's broadcast partner Radio Loudon LLC.
The station first signed on the air in January 1, 1983, as WLNT.[1] Because AM 1140 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A stations WRVA in Richmond and XEMR in Monterrey, Mexico, WLOD must sign-off at sunset to avoid interfering with those stations.
