Changed the call letlers from WCMS to WGH on 7/1/05 when the owners move the WCMS calls to a property in Eastern NC - 94.5/Hatteras. Sold to Max Media from Barnstable Broadcasting in early 2005. The cluster (92.9/WFOG, 94.1/WXEZ, 97.3/WGH, 100.5/WXMM, 1310/WCMS) went for $80M. A sixth station in the Barnstable cluster (1050/WVXX) was sold separately. Changed the call letters to WCMS from longtime WGH (since 12/10/84) on 12/6/04. The WCMS calls came from AM1050 when the owners sold that station to Davidson Media. Carries the Norfolk Tides Triple-A baseball games. Dates way back to 1928. This used to be Tidewater's main "top 40" contemporary station in the 1960s and early 1970s. This station took to the airwaves in October 1928 as WNEW (for Newport News). Call letters were changed to WGH about six weeks later to say 'World's Greatest Harbor.' (The WNEW calls were later taken by the 1130 kHz station in New York City.) WNEW (Newport oxu.spotigeek.com.tr News) was apparently the descendant of a station at Virginia Beach, WSEA, which did not last long and went dark about 1927. This allocation was picked up by a fellow named Tom Little, who moved it to Newport News. The original WNEW frequency was briefly 1430, then https://izmirharfpasta.com.tr/pin-up-online/ 1310, then and 1340 after the big frequency shakeup of 1941. In January of 1949, it was moved back to 1310 with a big power increase from 250 to xvkahqp.simongosselin.fr 5,000 watts and a brand new transmitter and studio facility in what is now Hampton, VA (city of license stayed Newport News). Station was an NBC Blue, later ABC affiliate. In the mid-late 1950s, WGH dumped the network programming for Top 40, with the name "Color Radio" or alternatively "Color Channel 131." They were still trying https://sendenhediye.com.tr/avrupa-iddaa-tahminleri/ to compete with TV, then only black and white - veac.scuolasancasciano.it so the radio had to be color! Go figure. From the 50s to the late 60s, many of their jingles said "WGH in Old Virginia." Also known as Music 131, Mighty Radio, Famous 1310, the Rock of Virginia, and 13 WGH. Station has been licensed to both Newport News and Norfolk. From 1954 until 1971, WGH was the qorinx.techgarage.my home of Bob Calvert, a legendary local radio announcer who was the inspiration for Wolfman Jack. During the mid 50s, Bob had a nighttime weekend show in which he became "Baron Be-Bop," playing R&B music and speaking in a black-affected accent. The show was wildly popular, and part of the reason they switched to Top 40. Wolfman Jack at that time was working at 1270 WYOU in Newport News under a different name. zlokfjd.techgarage.my He heard Calvert's act, decided to borrow from it, and the rest is history! WGH was the number one station in Tidewater from the late 50s until the mid-70s. The format was changed to adult contemporary in the early 80s, but that failed to recapture the station's former glory. The stations (AM & 97.3 FM) were sold in 1983. The new owners changed the call letters on both stations to WNSY. (Jokingly called "We're Not Sure Yet.") The AM format was switched to oldies. Around late 1984, the call letters were switched back to WGH on the AM after a difficult battle with the FCC. Once you give up three-letter calls, they don't like to give them back! The format was switched to "Real https://mutfakaski.com.tr/vagi-dinamobet// Country" (automated satellite https://spotigeek.com.tr/salvador-bet-giris/ format). After Susquehanna Radio took over in 1985, the AM format was switched (early 1986) to "Travelers Radio." This was automated information geared toward tourists. In late 1986, Travelers Radio was dumped and we started simulcasting with the FM (97 Star... in December 1986 they got WGH-FM calls back). The simulcasts ended about 1990 when it took CNN Headline News TV audio, syndicated and formatted for radio. This was a big hit during the Gulf War. In March 1991, that was dumped for Real Country once again. On May 30, 1992 country was dumped and Virginia's first only sports station was born using the 'Sports Entertainment Network'. Was W249BK/97.7 and doing 2 watts until moved to 98.3 in May 2011. 5. '86-'87 - vartv "Z96.7" with a Top 40 vartv format.
