History

106.5 FM signed on in the mid-1950s after the closing of the original WMAR-FM (now WIYY) in 1950. It was co-owned with WMAR-TV. For many years, the station had played beautiful music as WRLX-FM. But by the early 1980s, the target demographic of the station had aged beyond what was termed "profitable" and the station decided to switch to a new format.
