History
The station was given a construction permit and was assigned the call letters WVNM on 1991-08-09. On 1995-08-01, the still-unbuilt station changed its call sign to WCQQ, on 1996-07-15 to WRGO, and on 2017-07-24 to the current WXCZ.[1]
The station signed on the air in March 1996, as WCQQ, originally at 102.7 MHz.[2] It was owned by Stoehr Communications and aired an oldies format. In the early 2010s, the station moved to 103.3 MHz.
gollark: 12V might have been good. I'm not sure why they didn't use it.
gollark: USB-C with whatever power delivery stuff can do 12V, at least.
gollark: Running USB devices off alkaline batteries is kind of niche and was especially niche when the standard was made.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> *But* computer PSUs also have 5V rails. 12V and 3.3V too though, I'm not sure why they didn't use those.
gollark: I mean, this spreads very well, is 2%-ish lethal, and leaves a decent amount of people with severe symptoms and needing lots of medical treatment.
