History:
This station was shoe-horned into Orange Beach, between 105.7 in Troy, 105.9 in Atmore and Pascagoula, 105.5 in Bay Minette and Mary Ester. The site is so close to the shore that practically half of its coverage area is over water. With heavy interference in practically all directions, one would wonder why no less than nine people applied for the facility. The station came on the air in 1997 as WCSN, Sunny 105.7 formatted as hot AC. It faces competition from over a dozen city-grade signals in the area.
