WOLB

[8] WOOK, which moved to 1340 kHz in 1951, was the first radio station in the Washington, D.C., area to serve the African-American community, and United owner Richard Eaton immediately hired a black announcer for WSID.

[10] In 1959, Pauline Wells Lewis began her gospel music show, "Inspiration Time", on WSID; she continued with WSID-AM-FM until 1983 and remained a fixture on Baltimore radio until shortly before her death in 1998.

[11] Paul "Fat Daddy" Johnson, who worked at several Baltimore stations, found appeal among black and white audiences alike.

[15] WMET-TV, which broadcast some local programming (including a gospel show hosted by Wells Lewis[16]) but mostly simulcast sister station WOOK-TV/WFAN-TV in Washington, closed in January 1972.

[23] In 1989, Richard Eaton's estate agreed to sell WYST-AM-FM as part of a $132.5 million buyout of the company, including its nine radio stations and a 35,000-subscriber cable system in Manchester, New Hampshire.

[30] In 2015, the Federal Communications Commission ruled against WOLB in a case where a proposed facilities upgrade would have conflicted with an application from WIOO in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
