History

Before it played urban gospel music, WHAL-FM was called "Oldies 95.7" and played classic oldies songs until 2003. Earlier, from December 1993 to April 1999, it was called "96X" and played alternative rock music. Later, the alternative rock format came back on other stations, first at WMFS in 2000 as "93X", and then at WIVG in 2012, which also used the old logo that said "Never Blend In".
