WNTJ
WNTJ (1490 AM, "News Talk 1490") is a radio station licensed to serve Johnstown, Pennsylvania, United States. The station, established in 1946, is currently owned by Forever Broadcasting LLC and is a simulcast of WNTI out of Somerset, Pennsylvania.
It broadcasts a news/talk radio format including Pittsburgh Pirates baseball, Pittsburgh Penguins hockey, Pittsburgh Steelers football and select Fox News Radio programming.
The station was assigned the WNTJ call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on May 8, 2008
signal (which now bears the WKGE callsign) to Michigan-based Birach Broadcasting Corporation for $230,000. That sale was completed on April 10, 2008. As the sale included only the transmitting facility and license but not the programming or format, Forever Broadcasting moved the WNTJ format and call letters to the former WPRR at AM 1490 (which, ironically, was the original frequency of WNTJ). That station was owned by 2510 Licenses LLC but operated by Forever Broadcasting through a local marketing agreement until Forever Broadcasting reacquired the frequency
