History
[edit]Originally WGFG-FM, the station played beautiful music prior to the late 1980s, switching first to MOR and then to country music, at which time the station became WQTR "Q-100". The WWFN call sign was chosen when the station became an oldies station with the name "Fun 100". Over the years, WWFN/WWFN-FM has also played classic rock and CHR.
In January 2013, WWFN switched affiliations from ESPN Radio to CBS Sports Radio.[5]
On March 19, 2021, WWFN changed its format from sports to classic country, branded as "Classic Country 100.1".[6]
On August 28, 2023, WWFN-FM changed its format from classic country to hot adult contemporary, branded as "Q100.1" (format moved from WWFN-FM 100.5 FM Marion).[7] The station picked up the WQPD call sign at the same time.
