The History of Our Station
The first license for 1540 AM WTXY was granted to original owner Greg Singletary of Waccamaw Broadcasting Company on November 17th 1978 with the original call letters WOOZ.
On Dec. 31st 1979 The station changed its call letters to WTXY.
In 1980 the radio station was sold to Tom Stanley of Stanley Broadcasting, Inc. who broadcasted to the Whiteville community and Columbus County until he sold it to Jeff Millikin of Millikin Broadcasting on March 14th 2007. The station was immediately put up for sale and was purchased by Rob Kendall as WTXY Radio, LLC on August 6, 2008.
On March 15th 2018 and application for an FM Frequency was filed and accepted by the FCC.
On July 16th 2018 the application for the FM Signal W280FO 103.9 was approved by the FCC allowing it to simulcast WTXY 1540 AM's daily programming with 24 Hour coverage.
On August 1st 2019 AudioTraxx Media Partners LLC entered into a Time Brokerage Agreement with WTXY Radio, LLC and they flipped the format to 80's & 90's Classic Hits as KOOL 103.9 FM.
On August 21st 2019 an application was submitted by AudioTraxx Media Partners LLC to purchase the station from WTXY LLC was accepted for filing by the FCC. FCC approved the transfer in early 2020.
While maintaining the original broadcast studios on Virgil Street, WTXY KOOL 103.9 FM Broadcasts from the KOOL storefront window studios located at 1017 S. Madison street in Whiteville.
New studio upgrades are in the works, and we are focusing on getting our FM Antenna on a higher tower to cover a wider broadcast area for our listeners. This upgrade will require FCC approval as well.
