WIGN (1550 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station broadcasting a radio format of Bluegrass Music, Southern Gospel Music and Christian talk and teaching. Licensed to Bristol, Tennessee, United States, it serves the Tri-Cites - Johnson City - Kingsport and Bristol areas of Tennessee and Virginia. The station is owned by Mountain Music Ministries, LLC.
By day, WIGN is powered at 35,000 watts non-directional. But 1550 AM is a Canadian and Mexican clear-channel frequency. So to reduce interference, WIGN must greatly reduce nighttime power to 6 watts.[1] WIGN also broadcasts on a 250 watt FM translator, 92.1 MHz W221EC.[2]
