History

The first station at 100.5 FM to be located in the Greenville-Spartanburg market was WDXY-FM, a sister station to WORD (AM) in Spartanburg.

100.5 signed on in November 1960 as WLBG-FM, the FM sister to WLBG 860 AM in Laurens. It became WGXL in the 70s when it moved the tower to Gray Court and increased the power. At the time, well known local broadcast personality Monty Dupuy moved his morning show from WFBC to what was then called XL Stereo 100. Former WFBC-TV news director Dave Partridge also provided news on the station during this time.
