WHJJ (920 kHz, "News Radio 920 & 104.7 FM") is a commercial radio station in Providence, Rhode Island. It carries a talk radio format and is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. Its studios and offices are on Oxford Street in Providence.
WHJJ transmits 5,000 watts around the clock, from its transmitter site off Wampanoag Trail (Rhode Island Route 114) in East Providence.[2] A single non-directional tower is used during the day, providing at least secondary coverage to all of Rhode Island and the Massachusetts South Coast. At night, WHJJ switches to a directional antenna using a two tower array to protect other stations on 920kHz and adjacent frequencies.
Programming is also relayed by FM translator W284BA on 104.7 MHz, as well as 93.3 WSNE-FM HD2.
