}}WXTL is a classic rock station in Syracuse, New York branded as "The Rebel". It broadcasts on FM frequency 105.9 MHz and is currently under the ownership of Cumulus Media. Cumulus and Educational Media Foundation have entered into an agreement for EMF to purchase WXTL, along with several other stations in other markets, for $103.5 million. EMF will begin operating WXTL upon the sale's closure in the summer of 2019.[1]

History

For most of the 2000s, WLTI was branded as "Lite 105.9" or "Lite Rock 105.9" and had an adult contemporary music format that varied between "soft AC" (during the Lite years) and "hot AC" (during the later "Lite Rock" period). Programming during this period included Dave Allen (mornings during the "Lite" period), Robin Marshall (under the alias "Jayne," middays), Phil Spevak (under the alias "Brian Phillips," afternoons), Bob and Sheri (mornings during the "Lite Rock" time period), Delilah (evenings).

WLTI made the switch to news/talk, branded as WXTL "105.9 The Big Talker", in early March 2010, following a brief stunt with TV theme songs as "TV 105.9". Gary Nolan was the station's lone local weekday talk program; the rest of the lineup was culled from an eclectic mix of third-tier programming not already heard on its long-established competitors, WSYR or WFBL.

On January 6, 2012 at 10AM, after The Bob & Tom Show, WXTL began stunting again as "TV 105.9". At 1:05 PM, the station switched to classic rock as "105.9 The Rebel" with The Bob & Tom Show continuing in mornings. The first song on The Rebel was "Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol.[2] Dave Frisina (WAQX 1978-2003, WTKW 2003-2011)(Afternoons 2p-6p) was brought in to Program the station as a Classic Rock station with a broader playlist and more Local programming. Additional personalities include Roger McCue (Middays 10a-2p) and Holly Dagger (6p-10p).

On February 13, 2019, Cumulus Media announced it would sell 6 stations, including WXTL, to the Educational Media Foundation for $103.5 million. EMF already has K-Love WGKV (FM 101.7), a rimshot signal north of Syracuse, and as a result, one of EMF's other formats (worship music Air1 or classic Christian hits K-Love Classics) will likely be introduced to the Syracuse market on one of the two stations, with K-Love on the other.[3]
