[edit] History

Initially the station ran an automated easy listening format, then simulcasted the AM, but in the late 1980s, the AM side began broadcasting an automated country music format, using the monikers "Real Country AM 800 WDUX", & "DUX Country AM 800", while the FM side continued its contemporary music format.^{[citation needed]}

The FM also carries local sports broadcasts, along with Green Bay Packer Football, Milwaukee Brewer Baseball, Milwaukee Bucks Basketball, and Badger Football and Basketball. Both stations carry Paul Harvey & ABC Radio newscasts.^{[citation needed]}
