By day, WXQW broadcasts at 10,000 watts non-directional, covering parts of Alabama, Mississippi and the Florida Panhandle. But at night, it reduces power to 19 watts to avoid interfering with other stations on 660 kHz, a clear-channel frequency. WXQW's transmitter is on Pollard Road at Newman Road in Daphne, Alabama.
