History

The station signed on as WZZW with an automated adult contemporary format. The station flipped to urban on February 1, 1985 as WFXA.

WFXA was formerly home to the syndicated Doug Banks Morning Show and was the only Radio One station to carry the show. When former owner Radio One sold their Augusta cluster to Oklahoma City-based Perry Broadcasting in August 2007, Doug Banks was dropped for the Rickey Smiley Morning Show.

On January 11, 2008 at 2:58 pm WFXA relaunched itself, changing its branding from Foxie 103.1 Jamz, "The People's Station" to 103 Jamz, The Hip-Hop & R&B Leader".

Around the end of 2009, WFXA once again started identifying as Foxie 103 Jamz. Its main competition in the Urban format is Clear Channel Communications' WPRW.
