History
The station first signed on the air on August 25, 1986.[2]
The radio station's former call signs were WQRZ, WAZX, WWXX, WRAF, and WVNF ("the Voice of North Fulton"), and was once licensed to the neighboring city of Roswell, Georgia.
This station is not to be confused with the former WLTA FM 99.7, which was an easy listening and later soft adult contemporary station covering the same market.
