  • October 1992 – The station drops Smooth Jazz format to become Easy Listening.
  • April 1994 – A local marketing agreement is signed with Fairbanks Communications, then owner of WJNO and WRMF. Fairbanks purchased the station in 1994.[5]
  • June 1994 – An FCC license is granted to the station to operate as WRLX-FM.[6]
  • Spring 1996 – WRLX's Easy Listening format is the highest rated radio station in the West Palm Beach market according to Arbitron.[7]
  • April 16, 1999 – WRLX drops Easy Listening format for Urban Oldies 92X. The format is similar to the Jammin' Oldies format on New York City's WJTM (now WWPR) [8][9]
  • January 2001 – The station becomes alternative "Planet Radio," but retains WRLX call letters. According to the Palm Beach Post, the songlist is almost identical to the established Buzz 103.1.[10]

The simulcast was previously on 94.3 WWLV, but the owner of all three stations, Clear Channel Communications switched WWLV to Talk/Rock WZZR-FM.[11][12] In time, the station would stop simulcasting with WLVE. The same announcer would voice track the stations. In morning drive, WRLX was unable to offer time checks because the station not broadcasting live.
  • October 2004 – WRLX drops Smooth Jazz format for the second time in a dozen years to become "Soft Favorites Classy 92.1". According to the Palm Beach Post, "The new format (called Soft Adult Contemporary) appeals to the area's burgeoning Baby Boomers - the 50-years-plus active adults with not only Elton but Sinatra, Manilow, The Beatles, Neil Diamond, James Taylor and Streisand." Former WJNO newsman Jim Edwards returns to the market from Asheville, North Carolina.[13]
