WAGL (1560 AM) was a radio station broadcasting an oldies format that was licensed to Lancaster, South Carolina, United States. The station was owned by B. L. "Len" Phillips Jr., under the name Palmetto Broadcasting System, Inc.[1]
Because it shared the same frequency as "clear channel" station WFME in New York City (formerly WQXR), WAGL only operated during the daytime hours. Its transmitter site was located near the Catawba River, nearly 10 miles (16 km) from its studio site at 101 S. Woodland Drive.
