History:
WABB was the radio station
of the Mobile Press Register when it began in the late 40's. It was the
city's leading top 40 station from 1959 until FM competition eroded it's
position in the late 70's. The FM station which shares the same calls picked
up the top 40 format which it still has this day. In it's glory days of
top 40-dom, it had incredible ratings and some famous name DJs worked there
before going on the larger markets. Since then it's flirted with nostalgia,
oldies, black oldies and now it's all talk. The call letters have never
changed. WABB now has the Alabama-based syndicated Rick and Bubba show
on mornings.
