WONE-FM (97.5 FM) — branded 97.5 WONE — is a commercial album-oriented rock (AOR) radio station licensed to Akron, Ohio that primarily serves the Akron radio market. Owned by Rubber City Radio Group, Inc. which also owns Akron's WAKR and WQMX. Its transmitter is located in Akron.
The station signed on the air in October 1947 as WAKR-FM and was Akron's first FM radio station. It was co-owned with WAKR (AM). In 1974, the station adopted the callsign WAEZ, playing easy listening and beautiful music. The station adopted its current rock format as WONE-FM on January 1, 1985 when then owner Group One Broadcasting obtained permission to share the WONE call sign of its sister station WONE (AM) in Dayton.[1]
