The station originally signed on the AM dial at 1570KHz as
WIFF on September 3, 1968.WIFF was owned byFrank Kovas ofKovas Communications . The station's call-sign was changed toWGLL onMarch 31 ,1997 ; at this point, the station became a translator of WGL in Fort Wayne. WGLL signed off the air on October 3, 2002. OnFebruary 21 ,2003 ,Frank Kovas donated the station to theMoore Foundation , along with his other remaining stationW07CL . Due to his failing health, Kovas had already sold his other stations in the years preceding this. WGLL signed back on under the new management on April 14, 2003.Current Management
The station is currently managed on behalf of the
Moore Foundation by Ray Alexander. Alexander is a personal friend of Raymond Moore, and has helped launch a number of other ministries. The sister stationsW07CL andWFWC-CA are also managed by Alexander. Although the station is owned by theMoore Foundation , it does not receive monetary support from them. WGLL is supported solely by local donations. With the lack of funding and local interest, the station had been declining rapidly over the past decade.Current Programming
