History

DXWR was launched in 1978, airing a mass-based format. In 1999, the station switched to a CHR station and rebranded as WRFM, with its slogan, "Live It Up!". In 2002, the station rebranded as iFM and brought back its mass-based format. On June 25, 2018, the station added news and talk to its format, making it quite similar to the programming offered by its AM sister station DXRZ.
