WIXV (95.5 FM, "I-95") is a classic rock formatted radio station licensed to Savannah, Georgia, United States. It is owned by Cumulus Media.

History

WSGF-FM

WIXV began as WSGF-FM. An application for WSGF-FM, and the callsign, was originally applied for on June 8, 1971; however, an earlier application for the station to operate on 102.1 MHz was tendered in 1969. WSGF-FM began broadcasting on April 24, 1972,[1] & would receive its license to broadcast on April 11, 1973.[2] WSGF-FM originally broadcast a middle-of-the-road (MOR) format. The station changed callsigns to WIXV on July 15, 1983.[3]

The station started as in 1972 as WSGF ("95SGF"), a Top 40-leaning adult contemporary station. The station was highly successful against other competitors such as 1400 AM and Z102. By 1983, seeing the gap left by Wave 97 when they dropped album rock earlier that year, WSGF had become WIXV and added more hard rock to the playlist.

In 1986 I-95 became Savannah's full-time rock station. In 1998, Savannah Communications sold WIXV to Cumulus Broadcasting. Bringing in legendary programmers like Bill Weston, Virgil Thompson, and Don Scott. Since then WIXV has oscillated between a hybrid mix of classic and newer rock. In recent years, the station reverted back to classic rock. WIXV featured John Boy and Billy in the mornings for 15 years until they switched to the Bob and Tom show in January 2014.

On October 7, 2021, longtime host and program director Don Scott died at the age of 65 due to COVID-19, leaving a vacancy in the lineup of the station, as he was the host of the afternoon segment when most listeners would be leaving and coming home from work [4]

In January 2022, former program director at Dick Broadcasting-owned Active Rock station WFXH (Rock 106.1), Marci Stanley-Boger, was hired by WIXV as their new program director; Boger had spent 14 years at WFXH. [1]
