the owners, Larry Walters, approximately three miles east of Martinsburg. The stations pioneered the use of satellite delivered programs by joining the Satellite Radio Network in the early 1980s. The network delivered programs via satellite instead of on reel to reel tapes, a move that was ahead of its time and folded later, though satellite technology is a major source of programming for most Christian Radio stations today. WJSM-FM brought the first 24-hour-a-day Christian programming to the region in the early 1980s. There were no Christian stations broadcasting during the nighttime hours at that point in time. Sale to Martinsburg Broadcasting The WJSM Stations were sold in 1989 to Martinsburg Broadcasting, Inc. from Sherwood Hawley and Larry Walters. Larry Walters was the President of the corporation, and remains as its President to date. Sherwood died on July 27, 1993. In 1994, the WJSM Broadcast Center was constructed along Rebecca Furnace Road in Huston Township, just outside Martinsburg. The Broadcast Center houses the WJSM main studio, two full production studios, an engineering department, an audio library, offices, with a conference and meeting room on the lower level.
