History:
The station signed on in the fall of 1992 as Double X 92.5, WWXX, with a hybrid country and southern classic rock format.  The station dropped that to go contemporary Christian in 1994, and the calls changed to WXOR.  The calls changed again to WQYZ in 1998 and the station picked up a classic hits (70's & 80's) format; by late 2004 the station had changed to "Hallalujah 92.5" with gospel music.  Early September 2007 has Clear Channel pulling gospel with a flip to urban contemporary, as "The Beat".  In late October 2017, the station was discovered to have flipped to a wide-ranging variety hits type format as "Roulette Radio 92.5".  That lasted until Halloween when "Rock 92.5" debuted with an active rock format.
