WFAL (101.1) went on the air on February 12, 1987, under the ownership of Schooner Broadcasting, with principals Linda Baines and Brenda Westgate.
WJCO then became WYST, relaunching as hot adult contemporary-formatted "Star 93-5" with the slogan "Continuous Hit Music".
The station's voiceover talent was Mark Driscoll and two jingles were added from the 1989 JAM Creative Productions "Breakthrough" package.
The talent line-up consisted of Greg Cassidy, Super Max Cooper, Johnny Thunder and Wild Bill Hayes.
"The Wave" low-rated simulcast stations of WDVT and WTWV along with WPXC were sold to Nassau Broadcasting Partners.
John named the newly formed company CodComm, Inc. On July 17, 2012, an FCC construction permit was granted to move the 101.1 transmission facility from Mashpee to Barnstable at the tower of sister station WPXC.
On August 17, 2012, changes began to take place under the guidance of new CodComm Station Manager and vice-president, Steve "McVie" Solomon.
On September 13, 2012, on-air programming on 101.1 was switched to CodComm's newly renovated broadcast studio at 243 South Street in Hyannis, followed by 93.5 a few days later.
The format was tweaked and the station's image was updated as "93.5 and 101-1 Frank FM", with a new primary slogan of "Cape Cod's Ultimate Variety".
The station's voiceover talent was replaced with James Justice and jingles were added from the TM Studios "AMP'D" package.
On March 18, 2013, CodComm applied for license to cover with the FCC to complete its 93.5 transmission facility move from Brewster to Dennis.
Jenn Kennedy moved from weekends on sister station WPXC to mornings, followed by voiceover and production guru Bumper Morgan in middays, and 20-year Cape Cod radio veteran Janet Birchfield in afternoons.
For Sunday through Friday evenings, the syndicated "Intelligence For Your Life with John Tesh" moved from competitor WQRC to the station.
The branding was updated to "Frank 93-5", with a new primary slogan of "The Music Of A Whole Generation" and "Cape Cod's Variety" as a secondary.
On May 22, 2014, translator 93.9 W230AW (Centerville) owned by Jeff Shapiro's Nantucket Public Radio changed the parent station that it rebroadcasts from WRYP to WPXC (HD2).
It is hosted by Sweet Pete, who also does afternoons on WXXX in Burlington, Vermont and CodComm sister station WHYA.
John began to voice both station promos and dry liners that play over song intros at times when no on-air personality is on the air.
Jenn Kennedy moved from mornings to mid-days and Steve McVie began to double as Frank's afternoon host.
The former secondary slogan "Cape Cod's Variety" was reintroduced, including the brief reuse of a top of hour jingle that sang this, which was last used prior to August 2014.
At the beginning of March 2015, the translator 107.9 W300BE (Vineyard Haven) owned by Jeff Shapiro's Nantucket Public Radio changed the parent station that it rebroadcasts from WNAN to WPXC (HD2).
An FCC construction permit that was previously granted in January 2013 to switch W300BE to a directional antenna pattern and to increase the power to 250 watts was subsequently modified.
In March, the revised permit included a move of the transmitter to the mainland, just across the bay in Falmouth, which was completed by the summer.
The move effectively gave 107.9 better coverage in Falmouth in addition to the Vineyard, complementing the 93.9 translator in Mashpee which covers the rest of the Upper Cape.
Just after Thanksgiving Day, Frank FM temporarily flipped to an all Christmas music format for the holidays, followed by the hiring of a new husband and wife team.
In August 2016, the decision was made to modify the format, morning show and afternoon drive positions in an effort to increase ratings.
Rob Walker moved to afternoon drive from sister station WKFY, replacing Steve McVie, who was also formerly heard in that time slot.
Effective November 30, 2021, CodComm sold WFRQ, sister stations WHYA, WKFY and WPXC, and three translators to Steve Chessare's Coxswain Communications for $3.2 million.
