History

Originally WGBR-FM, this Goldsboro, NC station was later known as WEQR (Q96). In 1989, Curtis Media Group bought the station and moved the country format and calls of Tarboro's WKTC from 104.3 to 96.9. The WEQR letters went to the former WOKN at 102.3 FM. "Katie Country" existed at 96.9 until 1998. The 96.9 frequency was then given the WKIX calls. This station also ran a country format, simulcasting with WKXU in Burlington. [David Menconi,"KIX Walks; 96.1 to Shift", News & Observer, January 9, 1998] This station simulcast WWMY from 2001 to 2003 as an 80s station until it changed its format and language.
