History

103.1 signed on as WYAK-FM "Big Yak" with a country music format in 1977. In 1985 the name changed to Y-103 under new owners who wanted a different image. An AM frequency was added at 1270. In 1985, WYAK DJs included John Dixon, Ralph Connor and Steve Mimms. WYAK became a separate station around 1990, first calling itself WXMB and playing southern gospel music. The station became WYAK again later, the first Myrtle Beach area station to air Rush Limbaugh, and broadcast the FM programming part-time. Later the AM station played R & B oldies as WCKN, using the WCIN classic oldies format, but signed off.
