In 1984 the station increased power to 100,000 watts and became a country music station called WWWI "I-95". Later the name was changed to "I-94.5". In 1986 the letters were switched to WKLM when the station became beautiful music〔Jeff Borden, "The Readers Write: "'Beautiful Music' Listeners Find Ways to Fill Void After WZXI Format Switch," ''The Charlotte Observer'', April 14, 1986.〕 "Classy 94.5". Later, when the station had moved to Greensboro, the name changed to WWMY "My 94.5", though the format remained the same.〔Bradley Johnson, "Aiming for an Audience," ''Greensboro News & Record'', July 20, 1987.〕 WWMY switched to MOR in 1990, later changing to the new call letters WMKG and the name "Magic Lite" when WMAG began providing the station's programming. In 1992, WMKG became WNEU "New Country 94.5", later changing its name to "Cat Country". In 1994, the station became WXRA "94.5 the Rock Alternative", playing modern rock. Later in the 90s, the station began playing a mix of old and new rock and called itself "The Rock Station". Around New Year's Day, 2001, WXRA became WWCC, a classic-leaning country music station, but the ratings weren't there, and in 2003, WWCC became WGBT and flipped to a Rhythmic Top 40 format as "94.5 The Beat." On February 16, 2006, after playing "Don't Forget About Us" by Mariah Carey, WGBT switched to an all-Spanish language format, La Preciosa, playing music from the 70s, 80s and 90s. As such, WGBT became The Triad's first FM Spanish-language radio station (the 2nd in North Carolina). This made the fourth distinctly different radio format in five years to be broadcast on the 94.5 frequency in the Greensboro market. 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「WPTI」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
