[5] In a market dominated with country stations (WYII & WAYZ), WWCS struggled in the ratings even though it had the most powerful broadcast signal.

On March 1, 1985, the call sign was changed to WARX, the AOR format was switched to soft adult contemporary and the station rebranded as "Magic 106.9".

Later the same day, nearby Waynesboro, Pennsylvania-based WWMD (now WBHB-FM) switched from Top 40 to classic rock with the WEEG call sign and a similar branding of "Eagle 101.5".

[7] After a brief time of dueling "Eagle"s, WEEG ceded the branding the following week and flipped to "Classic Rock 101.5" with the callsign WFYN.

After Nassau went into chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, WWEG and WARK, along with WAFY in Frederick, were re-purchased by Manning Broadcasting in May 2012,[10] with the sale being completed on November 1, 2012, at a price of $6.4 million.
