Station History

100.7fm signed on June 13, 1960.

WVTS-FM

Built and owned by William John Kulinski. Later owned by West Pines Broadcasting Corp. WVTS flipped calls to WMGI and formats to Hot AC as "Magic 101" in 1986.

WMGI-FM

Sometime beteween 1986 and 1994, WMGI flipped again to Soft AC. WMGI went CHR on December 31, 1994. The format change included a smokescreen country format as "Highway 101", then the change occurred an hour later, starting off with "What is Love" by Haddaway. Note that GM Bob Swanson was formerly PD at WMGI, back in its "Magic 101" days. In March 2005, Bright Tower Communications, Inc. sold WMGI for $3.39 million to Midwest Communications, Inc. (along with sister WWSY).
