The station is currently owned by EBC Music, Inc. HistoryThe station signed on December 23, 1971 as WBRW, a middle of the road-formatted station owned by the Somerset Valley Broadcasting Corporation[1] and licensed to Somerville, New Jersey.[2] The station subsequently shifted to an adult contemporary format,[1] and was later relicensed to Bridgewater. However, WBRW began to lose money during the 1980s, and in 1990 it was taken off-the-air.[1] The Bridgewater Broadcasting Corporation purchased the license in 1993,[3] and brought WBRW back on the air in 1996.[1] Initially airing its own programming, in December 1997 the station became WSPW and began to simulcast One on One Sports programming from WJWR in Newark (now WSNR in Jersey City).[1][4] The following year, the station was sold to New Jersey Broadcasters and in April 1999 became a simulcast of sister standards station WMTR, under the callsign WWTR.[1] New Jersey Broadcasting was sold to Greater Media in 2001.[5] WMTR and WWTR shifted to a classic oldies format, emphasizing pre-1964 music, in 2004.[6] WWTR was leased to EBC Music, Inc. on November 1, 2005, who moved their "EBC Radio" South Asian programming from WTTM.[7] The station's call letters were then changed to WJJZ for a brief time in 2006 so that Greater Media could transfer that callsign to 97.5 FM in Burlington (now WPEN);[8] after this was completed, 1170 returned to WWTR.[9] In 2011 EBC Music ended their lease agreement and bought WWTR.
