WDUR (1490 AM) is an Indian/South Asian radio station in Durham, North Carolina, owned by Ravi Cherukuri, through licensee Arohi Media LLC.
In late 1951, WSSB merged operations with another Durham station, Mutual Broadcasting System affiliate WHHT 1590 AM (which subsequently left the airwaves).
Prieto Broadcasting is located in Doraville, Georgia, and specializes in Spanish language radio targeting the Hispanic community.

[9] On July 8, 2014, WDUR returned to the airwaves after a two-year hiatus under Arohi Media's ownership with Indian radio programming for South Asian community – a first for the market.
However, the translator was alleged to cause interference to WLUS, a country station licensed to Clarksville, Virginia whose transmitter is located near Bullock near the North Carolina/Virginia border whose signal reaches the outer fringes of the Raleigh-Durham area.
