History

WOCN is frequently one of the Cape's most listened to radio stations, especially among adults 45 and older. Upon the acquisition of Charles River Broadcasting's Cape Cod assets, it was announced that the popular "Ocean 104" would relocate to the stronger Class B signal of 104.7 MHz, swapping frequencies with WKPE. The swap occurred on April 17, 2007.
