History

[edit]

WTTC-FM first signed on the air in November 1959; 65 years ago (1959-11). The following year, the same owners put an AM station on the air, WTTC 1550 AM (now WTXW). In their early years, the two stations simulcast a full service radio format, at times playing middle of the road (MOR) music and country music. Both were network affiliates of the Mutual Broadcasting System. The two later separated their programming and today WTXW is an Adult Top 40 station.

Previously owned by Cantroair Communications, WTTC-AM-FM were sold on March 24, 2022, to Radigan Media (owned by Dave and Irene Radigan). While owned by Cantroair WTTC-FM's sister stations were WHGL 100.3 and 102.9 FM (Wiggle 100), WTZN 1310 AM and WTTC 1550 AM "The Zone." WTTC and its translator W299CM were also sold to Radigan Media in March of 2022.

On March 30, 2022, WTTC-FM changed its format from classic hits to classic rock.[3]
