History.
Origins.
On April 15, 1959, the station signed on as WGOG, broadcasting from Walhalla, South Carolina at 1460 kHz. WGOG was owned by Oconee Broadcasting. On June 16, 1965, WGOG switched its frequency to 1000 kHz (a frequency used for clear channel radio). In 1984, Oconee Broadcasting sold WGOG to Luzanne Griffith, who was the station's Traffic Manager and Receptionist. Griffith established WGOG-FM in 1991.
On April 1, 2002, WGOG was sold to Georgia-Carolina Radiocasting, changing its call sign to WSSW. On April 18, 2002, the station changed its call sign to WSMW. Then, on September 25, 2003, it changed to WWOF.
Move to Atlanta.
On June 26, 2008, Tugart Properties, LLC sold WWOF to New Life Broadcasting and was cleared to move into the Atlanta market area on its new frequency 890 kHz. On October 10, 2008, WWOF changed to the current WJTP. The station began broadcasting from its new facility in Lithia Springs, Georgia on January 25, 2009, with a Spanish Christian format.
On June 30, 2012, the station's license was transferred from New Life Broadcasting to National Broadcasting, Inc. The two companies share common ownership. In October 2013, WJTP was sold to James Su's Major Radio, LLC for $2.1 million. The sale was consummated on December 23, 2013.
