[edit] History

WFGF was founded in August of 1993 as WYRX "93 Rocks"(later 93-X and briefly as WFRY) a sister to WZOQ at first with an album-oriented rock format and transmits with 3,000 watts E.R.P. Its studios were shared with WZOQ in a building which previously housed a KFC restaurant on Cable Road in Lima. Its transmiter is located on Baty Rd. When Forever Broadcasting purchased the former WCIT-AM and WLSR-FM,the studios were moved up the street into the location of the AM/FM combo now known respectively as WLJM-AM and WUZZ-FM. The call letter and format switch to WFGF "Froggy 93" took place in March of 1998.

[edit] Programming

Froggy 93 continues its local country music following in Lima as an alternative to crosstown FM competitor WIMT.

Maverick Media currently owns the station which it purchased from Forever Broadcasting in 2005.
