[edit] History
AM 1150 was originally WAAB and was licensed to New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1934 the frequency moved to Baton Rouge and became WJBO under the ownership of the Manship family until it was acquired by Clear Channel in the 1990s. The FCC has granted WJBO a power increase which will boost the daytime power to 15kw. The upgrade is expected to be in place by April of 2008.
