History
The first station in the network, WGHW near Wilmington, was established in 2006. The station was sold in 2019 to Peace Baptist Church of Wilmington.[1]
CPA also owned stations in the Midwest, which were sold off or deleted. KAJF in Ipswich, South Dakota was sold to Agnus Dei Communications in 2011 and is now KSJP.[2] The license for CPA-owned KWOP at Fort Dodge, Iowa, was canceled in 2016 for being off the air for more than a year.[3]
In 2017, Church Planters sold WWFJ near Fayetteville to the Fundamental Broadcasting Network for $55,800.[4]
