WWFG (99.9 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Country format. Licensed to Ocean City, Maryland, USA, the station is currently owned by Clear Channel Communications.

History

Up until 1993 this station had the call letters WKHI and featured a top-40 format. The station was once called "100 KHI" even though it broadcasted at 99.9 MHz. As digital tuners became more popular the station eventually changed its name to "99.9 KHI" and then "Power 99.9 KHI."

In early 1993 this station was sold to Benchmark Communications along with 95.9 FM which was licensed to Bethany Beach, Delaware. Benchmark moved the WKHI call letters and top-40 programming down the dial to 95.9 FM and debuted WWFG "Froggy 99.9" on 99.9 FM.

During the early days of Froggy 99.9 the disc jockeys were all known by cute "frog" names. "Jimmy Hoppa", "Ann Phibian" "Jackson Leap" and "C.R. Fishhook" are just a couple that come to mind.
