WXKC (99.9 FM, "Classy 100") is a radio station in Erie, Pennsylvania. It plays Adult Contemporary music and is owned by Cumulus Media.

History: Beginnings as WLVU

This station first went on the air in 1949 as WLVU, eight years after the debut of its AM sister station, WRIE.

For many years until the mid-1980s, this was Erie's heritage easy listening radio station. The station ran automated for almost its entire existence until its purchase by K & K Radio Broadcasting in April 1985.

Following the purchase by K & K, and amid declines in the easy listening format, the format was changed to adult contemporary, much like what it is today, and the call letters to WXKC.
