[edit] Ownership

In November 2000, WJUS was acquired by Grace Baptist Temple Church from Rollins Broadcasting Co. (Elijah Rollins III, owner) for a reported sale price of $60,000.[3]

[edit] Construction permit

On August 09, 2006 the FCC issued WJUS a construction permit to allow this station to change its community of license to Selma, Alabama. The new tower location at 32°27'16"N, 87°06'36"W would also require a reduction in daytime power to 1100 Watts and nighttime power to 16 Watts. This construction permit expires on August 09, 2009.
