WMVR-FM
WMVR-FM (105.5 FM, "105.5 TAM FM") is a commercial radio station licensed to Sidney, Ohio, broadcasting an adult hits music format. Its studios, offices, and transmitter are located on Russell Road, just outside of Sidney.
==Early history...WMVR-AM 1960s==
Founded in 1963 as a daytime station at 1080 kHz on the AM band. Its founder and original owner was The Van Wert Broadcasting Company, which was also the original owner and founder of WERT in Van Wert, Ohio (currently owned by First Family Broadcasting) and made its inaugural sign-on during Thanksgiving Day November 21, 1963 after nearly a year of field tests and much anticipation. Prior to WMVR's founding, the only other two radio stations serving the Upper Miami Valley were WPTW in Piqua (which up to that point operated an auxiliary studio in the Ohio Building) and the former WOHP (now WBLL) located to the east in Bellefontaine.
Its first on-air personalities were Clif "Lil Monster" Willis (later of WIMA-TV now WLIO) and Larry Levy. Willis was also the first program director and station manager. Its original studios and offices were located on the second floor of the Taylor Building at the corner of Main Avenue and Poplar Street in downtown Sidney (demolished on April 7, 2011) while its transmitter and three towers were erected near the intersection of Russell and Kuther Road. Its 250 watt daytime signal was enhanced with a north to northeast directional antenna pattern which can be heard as far north as Bowling Green and as far northeast as Crestline near Mansfield. A 1965 tornado knocked down one of its AM directional towers but it remained on the air after special permission was granted by the FCC to do so. The fallen tower was re-erected the following year. Its proximity to 1070 kHz was the reason for the direction pattern to protect the 50,000 watt daytime signal of neighboring WIBC (now WFNI) in Indianapolis. The 50 thousand watt night time skywave signal of WTIC (also at 1080) in Hartford, Connecticut was the reason for WMVR-AM having to sign off at local sunset.
