It is one of only six English-language stations owned by Entravision (with a local marketing agreement with Taylor Media Stations Group), a company better known for its ownership of Spanish-language stations across the United States.
Despite being licensed to Hagerstown, WJAL's offices are located in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and its transmitter located fifteen miles west of Chambersburg, near the town of McConnellsburg.
History
