WJMF-LD,virtual andVHFdigital channel 6, is alow-powertelevision stationlicensed toJackson, Mississippi, United States. The station is owned by Rainey Radio. WJMF-LD's transmitter is located on Kerr Drive (offUS 80) on Jackson's south side. Programming is currently unknown.
WJMF-LP was previously anaffiliate ofUnivision, rebroadcasting a satellite feed ofKUOK inOklahoma City, a former sister station underEquity Media Holdings; consequently, WJMF-LP was Univision's sole affiliate in Mississippi, as well as the state's onlySpanish-language TV station in general. WJMF even broadcast KUOK station identifications and Oklahoma ads.
It was originally announced that WJMF would become aLAT TV affiliate. However, Equity placed LAT TV on co-owned WJXF-LP instead. (That station would later switch to Equity'sRetro Jams network, before closing down in 2010.)
WJMF was sold at auction to Rainey Radio on April 16, 2009; this separated it from KUOK, which was sold toTyler Media.[2] The sale closed on July 10, 2009.[3] In early 2011, WJMF-LP was relocated to channel 6, when it was relaunched as anoldies/classic hits-formatted radio station, "EZ 87.7".[4]
In June 2015, a Saturday evening request show was added to the station. The name of its host is Gearshift Gary.
On July 13, 2021, WJMF-LP signed off shortly before midnight. Its format (classic hits) had already moved toWZQK.
The station was licensed for digital operation on January 11, 2022; its call sign was changed to WJMF-LD.[5]
