WBHJ (95.7 FM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Midfield, Alabama, and serving the Birmingham metropolitan area. It airs an urban-leaning rhythmic contemporary radio format and is owned by SummitMedia, Inc. It shares studios in the Cahaba neighborhood in far southeast Birmingham with SummitMedia's six other stations.
WBHJ is a Class C2 FM station. It has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 12,000 watts. The transmitter is off Industrial Drive, among the towers for other Birmingham FM and TV stations on Red Mountain. In 2005, it also began broadcasting in IBOC digital radio, using the HD Radio system from iBiquity. Its HD2 subchannel rebroadcasts co-owned WAGG's urban gospel format. Its HD3 subchannel is leased to the WAY-FM Network. That feeds three FM translators with its Contemporary Christian music.
