The station went on the air November 30, 1995, as WKCD, with a smooth jazz format;[1] this was replaced with modern adult contemporary in 1999 (under owners Back Bay Broadcasting and AAA Entertainment).[3] Following a sale to John Fuller's Red Wolf Broadcasting, the current format launched on September 19, 2002;[4] initially using the WHJM call sign,[5] it became WWRX in 2004 after 103.7 FM in Westerly, Rhode Island, changed its call letters from WWRX-FM to WEEI-FM (it is now WVEI-FM).
