History

WATR-FM

The station signed on the air on August 1, 1961, as WATR-FM.[3] It was owned by the Gilmore family, which also owned WATR (1320 AM) and WATR-TV (channel 53; now WCCT-TV channel 20).

The call sign stood for the city of license, Waterbury. At first, WATR-FM simulcast the AM 1320 programming. In the early 1970s, it switched to an easy listening format. In 1973, it briefly changed to WENU-FM, before changing again to WWYZ.[4][5] With the new call sign, the station referred to itself as "The Music Lover's WISE Choice".

Switch to country

In the 1980s, WWYZ broadcast a mix of formats from country to Top-40. In between late August and early September 1988, it became an all country formatted station.In July 1999, WWYZ was bought by AMFM, Inc.[6] The following year, AMFM was acquired by Clear Channel Communications, which changed its name in 2014 to iHeartMedia.
