History
WSGC-FM was an oldies station known as "Majic" that signed on March 1, 1989 by longtime Chattanooga TN radio disc jockey Tommy Jett. It was Chattanooga's first FM oldies station. It was later owned by Clear Channel Communications.[1]
Later, as WTUN, the station played classic country music. Clear Channel[2] agreed to sell the station to Whitfield Communications in January, 2006. On January 1, 2006, Classic Country "The Legend" moved to WNGA 97.3/99.3 and WTUN then started simulcasting with WNOO. After a few months of simulcasting with WNOO, WTUN 101.9 then changed its broadcast callsign to WOCE and is now a Spanish-language broadcaster.
