History:
WBCA in Bay Minnette signed on in the late 50's at 1150 kHz. It was owned by prominent local politician James Faulkner. Moved to 1110 with a power increase in the late 60's. Call letters stand for Wonderful Baldwin County Alabama. Has at times been easy listening, country and adult contemporary. It's currently country oldies. About six months back, there were some internet newgroup postings saying this station was staying on at night, possibly with it's full daytime power, which was creating havok on the frequency at night.
