History

WLAG's first license was granted on May 5, 1941.[2] From 1941 to 1987, the station was owned and managed by Edwin Mullinax.[3]

(The WLAG call sign had been used by other broadcasters. From 1922 to 1924, it was used for the precursor to WCCO in Minneapolis, Minnesota, one of the Upper Midwest's most notable broadcasters.)
