History

The station signed on as WTRE-FM in December 1962. It was owned by the Clear Tone Broadcasting Company.[2] Clear Tone added an AM station, WTRE 1330 kHz, in 1966.[3] The two stations simulcast their programming for the next decade and a half.

In 1983, WTRE-FM made some changes. It became WRZQ-FM and moved its transmitter closer to Columbus. WRZQ-FM offered a satellite-delivered adult contemporary format.[4]
