WJVL (99.9 FM) is a country music-formatted radio station licensed to Janesville, Wisconsin, and serving the areas of Janesville and Madison, Wisconsin and Rockford, Illinois. The station is owned by Benjamin Thompson and describes itself as playing "Top 40 country mixed with country golds."[1]

History[edit]

In 1947, WCLO-FM went on the air as the sister station to WCLO. WCLO-FM was Wisconsin's first network FM station.[citation needed] It later became WJVL.[when?] After some years as "Music of your Life", WJVL changed to a country format in 1982.
