Licensed to Arcola, Illinois, United States, the station is currently owned by The News-Gazette ,and serves the Champaign, Illinois metropolitan area.[1] HistoryThe station went on the air as WZNX on 1991-09-06 and changed its call sign to WKJR on November 1, 1994. On May 5, 1997, the station again changed its call sign to WXET before finally changing them to WUIL on May 7, 2008, upon its switch to a Rhythmic contemporary format from hot adult contemporary.[2] In June 2010, WUIL was sold to the Stevick family, which also owns WDWS and WHMS. All on-air personnel were let go. The station relaunched as "U-Rock 107.9", playing various rock formats. The switch was made with station General Manager Mike Haile's introduction of "Ladies and Gentlemen...rock and roll." The station has a popular contest where it allows listeners to submit and air their "Perfect Ten" rock songs. The station then plays these selections on Thursdays. In March 2013, WUIL applied to change its call sign to WKIO, signaling a format change.[3] On March 26, 2013 WUIL changed their format from rock to classic hits, branded as "Classic Hits 107.9" under the new WKIO call sign.[4] Former U-Rock air staff
