Network

During most of 2013, WJIS was also simulcasted on 91.7 WFTI-FM in St. Petersburg; that station would cease operations in fall 2013, to allow for upgrades of adjacent channel WCIE and co-channel WJFH.
The Radio Training Network also has The JOY FM-branded stations in Dothan, Alabama ; Montgomery, Alabama ; Athens, Georgia ; Macon, Georgia ; and Atlanta, Georgia, though these stations do not repeat WJIS 24/7.

HD radio

WCIE and WJIS broadcasts in the HD Radio format. On HD2, the station has The Joy FM Praise, a channel that features exclusively Christian praise songs. On HD3, the station has LF Radio, a progressive youth music channel. Both can be listened to online or via The Joy FM phone app.

Translators

In addition to the full-powered stations, The Joy FM is relayed by additional low-powered translators:
