History
This station has quite a history on the frequency of 106.7 FM. It started out on August 15, 1962 as WFTL-FM, sister to 1400 WFTL. In the mid to late 1970s, it was WGLO with a beautiful music format. In the late 1970s, it was WSDO-FM ("Studio 107"). WWJF ("The Joy Of Florida") (1982) later became WJQY on (12/10/1984). Joy 107 FM achieved high ratings with a Lite Adult Contemporary format for nine years then the Miami radio demographics changed.
Station owner Tak Communications wanted to rebrand from Joy 107 to something more modern and fresh. Calls were changed to WTPX (for "Tropics 106.7 FM"), with a Hot Adult Contemporary format established on July 15, 1993. WTPX only lasted 9 months according to the FCC call sign change database. Tak Communications failed at bringing up the poor 2 share 12 plus Arbitron ratings. Tak filed bankruptcy in the early 1990s, and EZ Communications got two of the three Tak radio stations, WTPX and Philadelphia's WUSL, in October 1993.
