On May 8, 2019, WLOI changed their format from adult standards to classic rock, to be branded as "Rock 106.5" in anticipation of signing on FM translator W293DR 106.5 FM La Porte.[3]

WLOI relays programming to an FM translator; this allows the format to broadcast 24 hours per day, in addition to giving the listener high fidelity stereophonic sound. Geographically, the translator is located between WXNU in St. Anne, Illinois and WVFM in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
