The station shortens its call sign to WLGA on November 30, 1981, and became a full adult contemporary format station which remains to this day. WLGA was Valdosta and southern Georgia's dominant affiliate for Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 in the 1980s, listeners in the area can also listen to the program on Tallahassee's WGLF in a Grade B signal. On October 31, 1988, their call-letters changed to the current WQPW, [2]
