WJFG (1480 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Latrobe, Pennsylvania. It simulcasts with co-owned WJFA 910 AM in Apollo, Pennsylvania. They carry a conservative talk radio format and are owned by John Fredericks, through licensee Disruptor Radio LLC. The two stations formerly subscribed to the nationally syndicated JACK FM programming service.
WJFG has a daytime power of 500 watts using a non-directional signal, but at night, it switches to a directional antenna and increases power to 1,000 watts, using a four-tower array located at the end of Rocky Hill Lane in Unity Township, about two miles due east of the Arnold Palmer Regional Airport.
