WCPZ is owned by BAS Broadcasting, and in addition to a standard analog transmission, the station is available online. HistoryThe station began as WLEC-FM on August 15, 1959 and was the FM sister to AM station WLEC.[1] It became WCPZ on May 19, 1980, dubbed "Leisure 103" with a soft adult contemporary format. WCPZ eventually migrated to a hot adult contemporary format (as "Leisure Rock 103" and later "The Fun Point") during the 1980s, and had kept the format ever since. Following the sale of the station to Jacor Communications in September 1996, WCPZ eventually took the "Mix" banner used by Jacor's other Hot AC stations in the region, notably the now-defunct WVMX in Cincinnati and WMVX in Cleveland. As a result, the call letters changed to WMTX on April 24, 1998, with the WCPZ calls moving to the 100.9 facility in Clyde (today WMJK). The station regained the WCPZ calls on September 9, 1999, but kept use of the "Mix" banner on all other times. WMJK-FM, licensed to Clyde, Ohio as classic rocker "100.9 The Coast" (now country station "100.9 Coast Country") along with WLEC-AM and WCPZ-FM, made up Clear Channel's Vacationland cluster, having succeeded Jacor in 1999. On November 16, 2006, WCPZ, WLEC and WMJK were announced for sale as part of Clear Channel's divestiture of almost 450 small and middle-market radio properties in the U.S. The cluster was sold on January 15, 2008 to Fremont-based BAS Broadcasting, and BAS took over all three stations on February 1. WCPZ was expected to drop the "Mix" name following the sale, as the "Mix" moniker is used on many Clear Channel stations; however, it did not. BAS Broadcasting did, however, replace most local programming with the "AC Active" format from Waitt Radio Networks (now Dial Global Local). The morning show – hosted by longtime local radio personality Randy Hugg – remains live and local.[2]{{Failed verification|date=April 2015}} {{clear}}References1. ^http://www.americanradiohistory.com/hd2/Archive-BC-YB-IDX/70s-OCR-YB/1973-YB/1973-BC-YB-OCR-Page-0333.pdf 2. ^About Us - Mix 1027.com External links
