WJYM (730 kHz) is an AM radio station licensed to Bowling Green, Ohio, and serving the Toledo metropolitan area. It broadcasts a Christian radio format, and is owned by the ministry of noted Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart. The studios and transmitter are on Fremont Pike (U.S. Route 20 - U.S. Route 23) near Lime City Road in Lime City, Ohio.

By day, WJYM is powered at 1,000 watts. But 730 AM is a Mexican and Canadian clear channel frequency. So to avoid interference, at night WJYM reduces power to 359 watts. It uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array.[1] Programming is also heard on 250-watt FM translator W295DB at 106.9 MHz.
