WDGG

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WDGG (93.7 FM) is one of several country music formatted radio stations in the Huntington, West Virginia, Ashland, Kentucky, and Ironton, Ohio, market area. The Dawg's city of license is Ashland, and their studios are in Huntington. The Dawg is the flagship station of the Marshall University sports radio network. The station along with WRVC-FM, WRVC-AM, and WCMI are owned by Huntington-based Kindred Communications.

WDGG has an ERP of 100,000 Watts and is licensed to the city of Ashland, due to West Virginia only being an FCC Zone I state, which would only allow the station to have 50,000 Watts of maximum power if it were to be licensed to Huntington.
