WJXF-LP, UHF analog channel 49, was a low-powered television station licensed to Jackson, Mississippi, United States. The station was owned by Equity Broadcasting.

History

WJXF began carrying LAT TV programming beginning May 30, 2007, as part of a new deal between LAT TV and Equity. It was originally announced that LAT TV would replace Univision on sister station WJMF-LP. However, WJMF kept the Univision affiliation while WJXF began broadcasting LAT TV programming. Until that date, WJXF was a repeater of non-Equity WBXK-CA.

WJXF-LP

In December 2007, WJXF switched from LAT TV to Retro Jams, an Equity service that presents music videos, plus infomercials overnight.

WJXF-LP

WJXF was sold at auction to Rainey Radio on April 16, 2009. The sale closed on July 10, 2009.

WJXF-LP

In October 2010, Rainey Radio filed a Request for Silent STA with the Federal Communications Commission, citing technical and financial problems. The station's license would be cancelled in October 2011.
