WJXL 1010 AM, known on-air as "1010 XL", is a sports radio station licensed to Jacksonville Beach, Florida, owned and operated by Seven Bridges Radio, under its president Steve Griffin. Griffin also serves as General Manager of the station.

WJXL adopted its current format on April 2, 2007. It is the radio home to JU Dolphins football, basketball, and baseball games [http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/062407/spl_179691757.shtml] .

WJXL has six broadcast towers and has the largest broadcast signal of any radio station in Jacksonville at 50,000 watts. However, the station's antenna is directional towards the east, to protect WQYK (AM) in Tampa, Florida; and is coupled at night with a lower power of 30,000 watts, to protect New York City's WINS, Toronto's CFRB, and Calgary, Alberta's CBR.

The station broadcasts from the "Nimnicht Studios" at 9090 Hogan Rd. in Jacksonville. WJXL is the only sports station in Jacksonville that features local hosts from 6am to 9pm. ESPN Radio airs during the times that the station is not airing local programming.

WJXL took many of the radio personalities from the former sports radio station WZNZ, which changed to a religious format the day before WJXL picked up the sports format.

Starting on August 4, 2008, WJXL will start simulcasting most programming on WJSJ 105.3 FM, with Tom McManus airing on 1010 AM and Terry Norvelle & Arley Johnson airing on 105.3 FM. In the evenings, Gators and More moves to 105.3 FM with 1010 AM airing ESPN Radio, The Ultimate High School Show, or Poker Room Radio. The JU Dolphins will be on 1010 AM with the Georgia Bulldogs airing on 105.3 FM. [http://www.1010xl.com/page.php?page_id=19244]
