Historic Charlotte Radio Station Goes FM

WGIV, Charlotte’s first African-American radio station that originated in the 1940s, has traditionally been an AM station but has recently added an FM frequency. The urban inspiration talk/gospel station can be heard on 1370 AM and now 103.3 FM. You can read about WGIV's new venture in this week's issue of The Charlotte Post.


WGIV prides itself on its local programming, at a time when many radio stations' time slots are filled with nationally syndicated shows. The article includes an interview with WGIV on-air personality and program director Tonya Rivens, who is also a CAABJ member. Click here to read The Charlotte Post article.
