WMGX is a radio station in the United States, licensed to Portland, Maine. The station broadcasts on 93.1 MHz FM with a Hot AC format and is under ownership of Saga Communications. ==History== WMGX launched on June 10, 1977 by Sunshine Broadcasting and played a soft rock format as "Magic 93". Artists included James Taylor, Carole King, Cat Stevens and Carly Simon. Announcers did not talk over the music. Several songs were played in a row, with no talking between the sets. From the mid-to-late-1980s and through the '90s, WMGX was owned by the Portland Radio Group, LLC., which also operated talk radio station 560 AM WGAN, country station 101.9 WPOR and "Oldies" (1950s' and early-1960s' popular music) station 100.9 WYNZ. WMGX had a unique format, blending classic, soft, and progressive rock with adult contemporary music. At this time, the station claimed that "() never () the same song twice (one 24 hour period )," a boast that it later backed up with a monetary prize to anyone who caught the station doing so. On March 9, 2006, 29 years after the station's launch, WMGX changed format. The station then became "Coast 93.1", with a hot adult contemporary format, featuring music from the 80s through the present. Presently, WMGX has dropped the "80s, 90s and Now" slogan and has changed it to "Today's Best Mix". WMGX now plays mostly songs from the current and recent Top 40 charts, minus any songs deemed too hard-edged or rap-oriented. Songs from the last couple of decades also are heard but WMGX rarely plays any song recorded before 1990. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「WMGX」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
