History

Former logo

In September 1979, the assigned call sign WDDQ was established before the station launched on February 13, 1980 with an adult contemporary music format. WDDQ had multiple format flips throughout the late-1980s and most of the 1990s. In 1988, the station dropped adult contemporary and flipped to a classic rock format. Two years later in 1990, the station briefly flipped to country, and the following year in 1991, the station dropped the short-lived format and flipped to a tourist information radio format. The format lasted for five years until 1996, when the station dropped its tourist format and flipped to classic country. The station would then return back to its original adult contemporary format in 1999. This would last for another seven years until 2006 when it dropped adult contemporary music entirely and flipped to its current talk format.
