History
WGCM-FM started September 14, 1969. WGCM-FM had a country format in the early-to-mid-1980s. After the country format, WGCM-FM became a rock station using the moniker "TK 102". In 1989, WGCM-FM became "Coast 102", playing 1950s-1970s' oldies, and eventually "Greatest Hits of All Time" (1960s-1980s pop), its current format.

gollark: You would also have to ship the one time pad with it or it's literally impossible.
gollark: Although that wasn't really very hard, just annoying to do.
