[edit] History

The station was assigned the call letters WMST-FM on July 18, 1979. On October 19, 2000, the station changed its call sign to the current WMKJ with an oldies format known as "Magic 105.5", playing music of the '60s and '70s.[2]

On May 7, 2010 105.5 rebranded as "Rewind 105.5" with 1970s and 1980s classic hits. This was not a major musical change for the station, but resulted in the station dropping most of the music of the 1960s, although some remains. The call letters were changed to WWRW.[3]
