History

The station signed-on for the first time in February, 1948[2] with the WLBR-FM call sign. In the 1970s, the call sign was changed to WUFM and the format to soft rock. On November 27, 1992, the station changed call signs to WQIC,[3] rebranded as "Q-100" and changed to a Top-40/Hot AC hybrid format. "Q-100" was an affiliate of Open House Party. In March 1997, the station dropped the "Q-100" branding and returned to an Adult Contemporary format.
