I believe the "Hot 95 95.3 FM" is WRLB. I'm unable to find an official website for WRRL. http://radiogreenbrier.com/ shows Hot 95 as WRLB-FM. Nothing is shown at the site for 1130 AM. Old WRLB slogan was "Power 95.3" Both 95.3 and 1130 are in Rainelle, WV. So, it seems WRRL switched from so

Kraig, I'm starting to think that your unID must've said a word other than "Hot". In checking the WTFDA database, I see only 4 stations with a "Hot 95" slogan, none of them are on 95.3, and to complicate matters, none of them are anywhere close to an 1130, ruling out the possibility of simulcas
