History:
Came on the air in the early 90's with the calls WFMI as a Bay Minette lite-rock outlet. Later was re-licensed to Daphne, closer to Mobile. Within a short time of signing on, the WAVH calls and oldies format were abandoned by 96.1 in a competitive move; 106.5 picked up the format and calls, which are still in place today.
