[edit] History of the 94.9 Frequency

In the past, WWKL held the 94.9 frequency broadcasting oldies under the moniker Kool 94.9. Today, this frequency is taken by Bob 94.9. Bob started in December of 1996. Brad Chambers (from KPLX in Dallas) was hired as the program director. The station noticed instant fame and took over the "top country spot" from WRKZ (Cat Country 106.7). The original staff with the station was as follows:

Mornings 5:30-10:00a Todd Jeffers, Nancy Ryan, Harvey Taylor (now with WPOC in Baltimore) and Mikey Carlisle (now programming WJJS in Roanoke, Va.)

Mid-days 10:00-3:00p Shelly Easton (now the OM at Cat Country 96 in Allentown, Pa)

Afternoons: 3:00-6:00p Brad Chambers, PD (now working in Los Ang.)

Evenings: 6:00-10:00p Wes & Ang (Wes is John Beaston on the morning show on WINK 104, and Ang is currently the morning show co-host at the Beach 96.5 in Corpus Christi, Tx)

Overnights: "After Midnite" With Blair Garner (show still on the station)
