Archangel Radio (WNGL)

WNGL (1410 AM) is a radio station licensed to serve Mobile, Alabama, USA. Since September 2009, the station has been owned by Fairhope-based Archangel Communications, Inc.

WNGL broadcasts a Catholic radio format to the Mobile metropolitan area. In addition to its usual music programming, WNGL broadcasts select college football games as a member of the Classic Sports Radio Network.

The oldest radio station in Mobile, WODX first broadcast from the Battle House Hotel in downtown Mobile on February 7, 1930. Owned by W.O. Pape's Pape Broadcasting Company, the station changed its call sign to WALA in 1933. The book Alabama's First Broadcast Stations by Harry Butler says the calls WALA once stood for "We Are Loyal Alabamians".

January 1953 saw the launch of co-owned NBC-affiliated television station WALA-TV (channel 10) in Mobile and the start of a new era for the AM radio station. A shift by the Pape family in January 1956 saw WALA transferred to a new company called Pape Television Company.

In 1963 the ownership of the radio and television stations was split and the AM station's callsign was changed to WUNI. The callsign was intended to sound out the phrase "You and I". The re-christened radio station was acquired by a new company called WUNI Inc. on December 3, 1964. It was with this ownership change that WUNI became the first full-time country music radio station in Mobile. The station was sold again, this time to the similarly-named Radio Station WUNI Inc. on August 1, 1976.
