[edit] Signal

The station signed on in 1985 on 92.1. Because it was so close to WSGA-FM on 92.3, the station was limited in its transmitter power. In 1999, the station swapped frequencies with WBHC on 103.1 to get a better signal into Savannah. The station has difficulties reaching listeners in Savannah because of its inferior signal. In January 2006 the station was given permission by the FCC to move its tower closer to Savannah.

[edit] Programming

Previous formats include Rhythmic Top 40 as The Real Z 103 dot 1 (1999-2002), and 80's music as Star 103.1 - The 80's Channel (2002-2004). Previous calls (though formats are unknown) include:

  • WGCQ: 1985-1987
  • WBHH: 1987-1990
  • WOCW: 1990-1997

In 2004, Lexie Kaye was hired as program director and mornings as the station flipped its format from All 80s to Classic Hits.
