WMJX was a commercial radio station licensed to Miami, Florida, United States, that broadcast at 96.3 FM from 1948 to 1981. The station was last owned by The Charter Company. WMJX's broadcast license was revoked by the Federal Communications Commission due to the use of fake news stories to promote a 1975 contest and an error in which advertisers were billed for commercials that did not air.
