History of the 100.1 Frequency

100.1 was previously held by WPRR, which was also a CHR formatted station from 1986 until the call letter change to WWOT. Prior to the format change in 1986, WPRR had been formatted as AOR since 1980, and prior to 1980 it had been WVAM-FM, an automated, Drake-Chenault, Top 40 station. One of its most popular features in the 1990s was the morning show with Tommy Edwards and Danice Bell, which aired every weekday. Other popular personalities to pass through WPPR during the 1980s and 1990's were Scott St. John, Dave McCall, Darrell Ray, and Rich Dennis.

Conflict with 100.1 in Cumberland, Maryland

As one travels southbound on Interstate 99 towards Bedford, Pennsylvania, WWOT's signal will start to conflict with WDZN of Cumberland, Maryland, a Radio Disney affiliate. Neither radio station has done much to take care of this problem.
