HISTORY OF BROADCASTING IN WEST VIRGINIA

WWBB, Madison

WWBB went on the air on Oct. 27, 1978, on 1450 kHz (a frequency which had been vacant since 1951 when WWNR in Beckley changed from 1450 to 620 kHz). The station was owned by Boone Broadcasting Corp., Richard Callaway, general manager.

The license of WZAC-1450 has been deleted by the FCC.

Some photos of WWBB by Tim Miller are at Flickr here.

On YouTube there are three audio clips from Trading Post on WZAC-FM Danville-Madison: part 1, part 2, part 3.
