[edit] Station History

WMTZ 94.3 FM signed on in 1984 as an Adult Contemporary outlet. The station became WGOR in 1992 with an Oldies format as "94 Gold". In 1994, WGOR upgraded its signal to 13 kW. and moved to 93.9 FM becoming "Oldies 93.9".

In 2004, WGOR moved the Oldies format and call letters to 102.7 becoming Oldies 102.7, while 93.9 was launched as Classic Country "93.9 The Bulldog" with the WKDG call-letters. Shortly after, the station was issued a C&D letter from Clear Channel Communications, which had launched WIBL several week previous as "105.7 The Bull" and claimed the station was infringing on its trademark. WKDG became "93.9 The Big Dog", but kept the Classic Country format.

In 2005, after a year where the station showed little growth, the station flipped to its current Classic Hits format as "93.9 The Drive" under the WDRR call letters.

The station is owned by the Beasley Broadcast Group.
