==FM history==
WDAO started in the fall of 1964 at 107.7 MHz on FM (currently home to WMMX "Mix 107.7") Not only was it the first R&B-formatted station in the Miami Valley, it was also the first FM station of its kind in America and was the sister to AM daytimer WAVI owned and operated by H.K. "Bud" Crowl its founder (dba:WAVI Broadcasting Corp.) when its original studios were located adjacent to Interstate 75 at 1400 Cincinnati Street. Billed as "the soul of Dayton" it broadcast the hits of the Memphis and Motown soul era of the 1960s and into the Philadelphia disco sound of the 70s. Like its Top 40 AM competitor WING, it also had a stable of on-air personalities including George Truehart, "Big Ray" Meaders, Bill "Biggie B.C." Carr, Robert "Bob" Patton, "Shotgun" Pleasant, Long John Silver, Lankford "The Man" Stevens, Mack J. Pettigrew, Jim Johnson, Turk Logan, Michael Ecton, Brinda "Let's Rock" Carter, a graduate of the (dba: (IBC ))International College of Broadcasting of Dayton, Ohio and the late Rick Smith (later of WHIO-TV). WING alumnus Gene "By Golly" Barry also worked at WDAO as program director in the late 1970s in addition to hosting a weekend oldies program on WAVI in the early 1980s. WDAO-FM was the most popular of Crowl's stations,the other being "people power" WAVI with a talk format sometimes mixed with adult standards and a simulcast of WDAO-FM's Sunday evening jazz program. Sunday morning Gospel was hosted by Stanley Henry of Springfield and Sunday evening had a program called "Backpage", hosted by Raymond Graham and Ro-Nita Hawes (the latter would later go on to launch WROU in 1991, and would own that station until she sold it to Radio One in 2004).
