History

WDUX began as a stand-alone AM radio station in 1956 at 800 kHz on the AM dial. Its FM side, 92.7 WDUX-FM began broadcasting in January 1967. WDUX used the moniker, "Mid-Wisconsin's Hit Music Station." In the early part of the 1980s, it also featured a locally produced jazz show Sunday nights. At the beginning, the station ran an automated easy listening format, then simulcasted the AM, but in 1987, the AM side began broadcasting an automated country music format, using the monikers "Real Country AM 800 WDUX", & "DUX 'ducks' Country AM 800", while the FM side continued its contemporary music format.^{[citation needed]}

Unlike many small town stations, "FM 92.7" uses live & local personalities, opposed to syndicated satellite programming, using Voice Tracking some evening and weekend hours, The FM also carries local sports broadcasts, along with Green Bay Packer Football, Milwaukee Brewer Baseball, Milwaukee Bucks Basketball, and Badger Football and Basketball. Both stations carry ABC Radio newscasts & features. WDUX became an affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers Radio Network in 1989 after New London radio station WNBK changed its call letters to WOZZ and moved its studios to Appleton, Wisconsin.
