WDJL (1000 kHz, "Gospel Explosions") is an AM daytimer radio station licensed to Huntsville, Alabama, that serves the Huntsville - Athens - Decatur radio market. The station is owned by Dorothy Sandifer, doing business as WDJL Gospel Explosions. It broadcasts an urban gospel radio format with Christian talk and teaching shows.

By day, WDJL is powered at 1,100 watts, using a non-directional antenna. But because 1000 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WMVP Chicago, WDJL must go off the air at night to avoid interference. The transmitter and studios are on Stringfield Road NW near Blake Bottom Road in Huntsville.
