A license to cover has been issued for translator W286AQ (105.1 MHz, 218 watts vertical only). Licensed to Northport, it is actually physically closer to Jemison in Chilton County. Although I'm skeptical it's actually on the air, it is supposed to be relaying WZZK out of Birmingham. It appears to be temporary, though, as there's already a pending application in the pipeline to shift the station further to the east, towards Lay Lake.
This is one of a handful of translators on the 105.1 MHz frequency around central Alabama that have been in a fruit basket turnover, moving every which-a-way. Before the Jemison facility, it has allegedly been in Wilton in Shelby County, West Blocton of Bibb County and Vance and Northport in Tuscaloosa County. Its ultimate destination is still anyone's guess.
