WQPO-HD3 was launched in early 2016, carrying a classic rock format branded as "V100.1; Iconic Rock". WQPO-HD3 is relayed by W261CV on 100.1 in Harrisonburg, from which it derived its branding. On the morning of May 9, 2018, WQPO-HD3 flipped from classic rock to soft adult contemporary, branded as "EZ Favorites 100.1".[3]

WQPO-HD2 flipped from a simulcast of sports WHBG (1360 AM) to original programming as oldies-formatted "Pure Oldies 101.3" on May 25, 2018.[4]

gollark: Specifically, I wanted to be able to do stuff like checklists.
gollark: Minoteaur 8 is to be highly good and Rust-based, and replace the previous "pages' content is a text string" data model with "pages' content is a sequence of blocks which can be text or other things".
gollark: I am *probably* going to have separate endpoints because thing anyway.
