In September 2000, Pelley Road Christian Fellowship applied to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new low-power broadcast radio station to serve Rockford, Illinois.[2] The FCC granted this permit on May 19, 2003, with a scheduled expiration date of November 19, 2004.[4] The new station was assigned call sign "WHJG-LP" on June 24, 2003.[5] After construction and testing were completed in November 2004, the station was granted its broadcast license on May 19, 2005.[6]
