https://i0.wp.com/radioinsight.com/wp-content/images/2019/01/air1.png?resize=200%2C200&ssl=1Educational Media Foundation’s “Air1 (https://air1.com/)” has added a second signal in the Memphis area as it is now being heard on Flinn Broadcasting’s 96.1 WIVG Tunica MS.
WIVG, which rimshots Memphis from the south, joins 96.7 W244BY Memphis/94.9 WKVF-HD2 in carrying the Air1 programming. It becomes the second Flinn owned station in Mississippi this month to begin airing the network after 100.9 WJXN-FM Utica/Jackson, which switched on January 1 after Alpha Media’s LMA ended (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/246790/jack-departs-jackson/).
WIVG had been home to Classic Rock “Drake-FM (https://drakehallmemphis.com)“. Operated by longtime Memphis morning host Drake Hall, the “Drake-FM” brand debuted first (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/203868/drake-hall-memphis-radio-debuts-on-87-7-wpgf-lp/) on Flinn’s 87.7 WPGF-LP in January 2021 before moving to WIVG later that year. The station is now operating exclusively online promoting it is now “uncensored and unrestrained”.
