[edit] History

After buying WJTP in 1996 and changing its letters to WECR, Steve Rondinaro's Rondinaro Broadcasting started WECR-FM and added WXIT. Aisling purchased these stations as well as WATA and WZJS, which were owned by Highland Communication Associates. Aisling went into receivership and George Reed of Media Services Group was appointed to manage the stations until a buyer is found[1].
