WDEK

WDEK (1170 AM) is a daytimer radio station licensed to Lexington, South Carolina and serving the Columbia area.

Because AM 1170 is a clear channel frequency, WDEK must sign off at sunset to avoid interfering with the Class A station WWVA in Wheeling and KFAQ in Tulsa.

In November 2010, the station was in receivership with a request to transfer the license to Broomfield Broadcasting of Greenwood, South Carolina.

Under the leadership of Bishop Eric J. Freeman, the station adopted an urban gospel format branded as "Columbia's Praise."

The station now serves as a cornerstone of The Meeting Place Church’s community engagement initiatives, broadcasting faith-based programming and gospel music.
