[edit] History

This station signed on with sounds of the ocean in the mid-90s, but then went silent. For a while it aired the programming of WWXM.

"Pirate 100" played classic rock and aired John Boy and Billy. Eventually WJXY-FM, a CHR station, put its programming on WSEA before switching to all sports.

Early in 2006, Rose Rock, mother of Chris Rock, had a talk show on WSEA.[1]

"Hot 100" CHR/Top 40 aired Ace & TJ Mornings from CBS Radio's Kiss 95.1 in Charlotte, NC.[2] "Hot 100" never really came close to "Mix 97.7" in the ratings.[3][4][5]

"Power 100.3" signed on April 4th with the sounds of Rhythmic/Hip Hop.
