WXQW (660 AM) is a news/talk radio station licensed to Fairhope, Alabama, and serving the Mobile metropolitan area. The station is owned by Cumulus Media and the broadcast license is held by Cumulus Licensing LLC. The radio studios and offices are on Dauphin Street in Midtown Mobile.
By day, WXQW broadcasts at 10,000 watts non-directional, covering parts of Alabama, Mississippi and the Florida Panhandle. But at night, it reduces power to 19 watts to avoid interfering with other stations on 660 kHz, a clear-channel frequency. WXQW's transmitter is on Pollard Road at Newman Road in Daphne, Alabama.[4]
