History
WTXY's first license was granted to original owner Greg Singletary (Waccamaw Broadcasting Co.) on November 17, 1978, with the call letters WOOZ. The station changed its call letters on December 31, 1979, to WTXY. The radio station was sold to Tom Stanley (Stanley Broadcasting, Inc.) in 1980, who served the community until he sold it to Jeff Millikin (Millikin Broadcasting) on March 14, 2007. The station was immediately put up for sale and purchased by Rob Kendall and Jason Dozier (WTXY Radio, LLC) on August 6, 2008. The station was granted the license to begin simulcasting on the 250-watt 103.9FM W280FO on July 16, 2018. Audiotraxx Media Partners purchased the station from WTXY Radio, LLC on August 1, 2019. The station carries Whiteville High School Football and Baseball coverage in Columbus County. On August 1, 2019, WTXY changed their format from soft adult contemporary to classic hits, branded as "Kool 103.9".
