History
[edit]From its sign-on in 1968 until 1976, WBEV-FM simulcast the programming of WBEV 1430. In 1976, the station call letters were changed to WXRO and it began airing the Drake Chenault "Great American Country" automated format. On July 12, 2019, the then-WXRO changed formats from country to hot adult contemporary, branded as "95X".[4]
On August 1, 2022, WXRO flipped to full-service oldies as a simulcast of WBEV under the WBEV-FM call sign, with the AM station to flip to sports on August 15.[5]
