WXJO
WXJO AM 1120 is a daytime-only radio station, broadcasting on a frequency of 1120 kHz with a power of 1,000 watts, licensed to serve the city of Douglasville, Georgia and reaching western portions of the metro Atlanta radio market, mainly within Douglas County. The station is currently owned by Exponent Broadcasting, Inc., and operated by Ploener Radio Group under an LMA. The station had originally been broadcasting a variety of music (mostly oldies), and public-service announcements in what appeared to be an early
second tower.
In January 2016, the owners of WXJO filed an application to the Federal Communication Commission for special temporary authorization to become silent, which was granted. The reason given was "At this time it is not financially feasible to operate WXJO. An application to assign the license to another party is pending".
