History
The station went on the air as WSWN-FM on October 10, 1978. On June 19, 1989, the station changed its call sign to the current WBGF.[1]
The station previously broadcast a regional Mexican format branded as Radio Lobo; on September 22, 2014, WBGF was acquired by JVC Media from its previous owner BGI Broadcasting. On September 23, 2014, shortly after the completion of the purchase, WBGF flipped to a mainstream rock format branded as 93.5 The Bar, opening with a day-long marathon of the Bubba the Love Sponge show, followed by 10,000 songs commercial-free.[2]
