History
Originally on 95.3 MHz, WJTO-FM began in June 1971. WJTO-FM was co-owned with WJTO (730 AM). WJTO-FM later became WIGY with a contemporary hit radio format. Later the station changed formats and calls to classic rock WKRH on January 10, 1991. WKRH eventually went silent and was purchased by Blount Communications; on May 1, 1995, the station changed its call sign to the current WBCI.[3]

gollark: I mean, I launched an IRC→orbital scanner log bridge last year.
gollark: I think *everyone* has access to those by now, really.
gollark: Wiping my memory would require wiping my memory, but you can't actually wipe my memory.
