WJGL (96.9 MHz, "96.9 The Eagle") is a commercial FM radio station in Jacksonville, Florida.
[4] WJGL is a Class C FM station, running at an effective radiated power (ERP) of 100,000 watts, from a tower at 1,014 feet (309 m) in height above average terrain (HAAT).
WJGL's HD2 channel carries an urban contemporary format, which is also heard on 225-watt translator station W291CI, calling itself "Power 106.1."
The 96.9 frequency originally was the home of WJHP-FM which first began experimental broadcasts in 1947, before any other FM stations were on the air in Jacksonville.
The license was returned to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the frequency remained unoccupied for seven years.
[11] In 2005, WKQL changed call letters to the current WJGL, shifted to classic hits, and rebranded as "96.9 The Eagle."
