WXNR airs a Top 40 format branded as "Hot 99.5". HistoryWXNR came from the original call letters of WTND. And before that it was WVVY FM playing adult contemporary and then R&B music as "Wavvy 99.5" (with no rap) in 1988 through 1993 it switched to country music WTND and was known as "Thunder Country" until 1996 when the call letters changed to WXNR and the name changed to "New Rock 99X". The station went through many station identities (i.e. Extreme Radio, New Rock, etc.) until 2006 when the name was changed to "99.5 The X" with the positioning statement "It Just Rocks".{{Citation needed|date=July 2010}} In 2002, WXNR was left as the only Howard Stern affiliate in the Southeastern United States. At that time, the station taped the show and broadcast it in the evenings.[1] "The X" was an affiliate of Lex and Terry which served as their morning show. Weekdays are hosted by Blando (10a - 3p noon being the 90s Nooner) and Mick (3p -7p) on the afternoon show "The X Short Bus". Specialty programming includes syndicated hard rock/metal show "Full Metal Jackie" Fridays from 10p - midnight, rock/hip-hop mix up show Skratch 'N Sniff on Saturdays from 11p - 1a, and a local show on Sundays at 9pm called "Local 99". On February 2, 2017, Beasley announced that it would sell its six stations and four translators in the Greenville-New Bern-Jacksonville market, including WXNR, to Curtis Media Group for $11 million to reduce the company's debt.[2] The sale was completed on May 1, 2017.[3] On October 20, 2017 at 3pm, after stunting for several hours with a loop of "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" by R.E.M., WXNR flipped to CHR as "Hot 99.5". The first song on Hot was "Unforgettable" by French Montana.[4][5][6] Previous LogoReferences1. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.animaux.net/stern/charleston.html|title=Dick Dale to replace Stern's show|last=Spar|first=Mindy|work=Post and Courier|date=2002-02-24|accessdate=2010-07-08}} 2. ^{{cite news|last1=Layden|first1=Laura|title=Beasley to sell six stations in North Carolina for $11 million|url=http://www.naplesnews.com/story/money/business/local/2017/02/03/beasley-sell-six-stations-north-carolina-11-million/97445104/|accessdate=June 6, 2017|work=Naples Daily News|date=February 3, 2017|language=en}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Consummation Notice|url=http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/prefill_and_display.pl?Application_id=1756329&Service=FM&Form_id=905&Facility_id=70497|website=CDBS Public Access|publisher=Federal Communications Commission|accessdate=June 7, 2017|date=May 3, 2017}} 4. ^[https://radioinsight.com/headlines/120472/eastern-ncs-99x-gives-way-hot-99-5/ Eastern NC's 99X Gives Way to Hot 99.5] Radioinsight - October 20, 2017 5. ^[https://formatchange.com/99x-becomes-hot-99-5/ 99X Becomes Hot 99.5] 6. ^[https://www.allaccess.com/mediabase/q/report/playlist/station/WXNR-FM WXNR playlist] from All Access Media Group External links
