History
In October, 1990, WJXN (then at 92.9 MHz) first signed on the air. It had a Top 40 format and was branded 92.9 The Heat. But The Heat was turned off after just a few months.

In 1991, WJXN switched to oldies. It was branded J92. But that only lasted a year.

In 1992, WJXN made another switch--to country music. It was branded Star 92. Later that year, WJXN started simulcasting WOAD. WOAD's then-owner, Holt Communications, had leased WJXN, and changed the call sign to WOAD-FM.

In December, 1997, WJXN was sold to Flinn Broadcasting.

In December, 1999, WJXN swapped frequencies with WDXO.

For several years, WJXN had been leased by the non-profit Educational Media Foundation and was affiliated with the "K-Love" Christian Contemporary music network until 2012.

On July 26, 2012, the lease was transferred to Meridian, Mississippi-based New South Radio (then doing business as The Radio People). WJXN first switched to adult hits, branded as 100.9 Jack FM.

On March 1, 2014 at midnight, WJXN began stunting. Then on March 3 (after 60 hours of stunting), the station relaunched as classic country-formatted 100.9 The Legend.

In March 2017, New South Radio acquired WHJT from Mississippi College. On July 31 of that year, the classic country format moved to WHJT, with New South Radio terminating its lease on WJXN. Then end of the lease caused WJXN to go silent.

On October 9, 2017, after two months of silence, WJXN returned to the air with classic hip-hop, billing itself as Hot 100.9. During these three months, the station utilized national programming from Westwood One's Classic Hip-Hop network.

On January 5, 2018, WJXN ended its Hot 100.9 classic hip hop phase. WJXN-FM was rebranded as g 100.9 (still having classic hip-hop), this time under a local marketing agreement (LMA) deal with Alpha Media. That company replaced the Westwood One programming with Alpha's in-house presentation, thus putting it in line with Alpha's g-branded stations.

On February 19, 2021, WJXN flipped back to adult hits, again as 100.9 Jack FM. A portion of its signal overlaps with WDXO. At that time, WDXO (licensed to Hazlehurst, with studios located in Brookhaven) also had adult hits, and had been branded 92.9 Jack FM.

On January 1, 2023, WJXN dropped the Jack FM adult hits format, due to Alpha Media's operation of the station coming to an end (as well as low Nielsen audio ratings). WJXN switched to the Educational Media Foundation's Air1 worship music format.

On October 31, 2023, Flinn Broadcasting announced the sale of WJXN to the Educational Media Foundation.

On March 26, 2024, Flinn's sale of WJXN to the Educational Media Foundation consummated.
