WFAI (1510 AM) is a radio station licensed to Salem, New Jersey broadcasting a religious format. The station is currently owned by Delmarva Broadcasting Company.[1]

History

The station signed on in 1966 as WJIC ("Jersey Information Center"). From 1981 to the early 1990s, WJIC featured a country format as "Just Country WJIC", then changed format and promoted itself as "News/Talk 1510". On October 1, 1997, WJIC, which was co-owned with WNNN on 101.7 FM, took over the FM station's religious format and adopted the WNNN call letters. On May 3, 2001, calls were changed to WFAI to reflect their "Faith 1510" slogan.[2]
