History

In the 1950s and 1960s the WXXX call sign was licensed in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. [cite web |url=http://www.440.com/ms.html |work=Radio Broadcasting History |title=Radio Stations by City: Mississippi]

Sometime in the 1980s, WXXX was licensed to a South Burlington, Vermont, station broadcasting on 95.3 FM. However, in the early 1990s the station upgraded their signal and moved to 95.5 FM. Although the station is licensed in South Burlington, the stations offices and studios are located in Colchester along with co-owned WVMT. This radio station was the birth place to many radio careers like Michael Maze, Artie the One Man Party, Matthew "LA" Reid, Michael Mann, Troy Shannon, Keith Rice, John "Lucas" Grinnell, Scott Osbourne, Jeff Thomas, Lisa B, Josh "JB Goode" Goodman, Ken Benson, Skip Church, and Rob Poulin.Fact|date=September 2008
