Zezza's son Frank led a group that purchased the station back from Sconnix in the early 1980s.
By this time, WCFR's popularity waned in favor of its FM sister station, WCFR-FM.
[3] Dodge left the station in 2000 after being charged with domestic assault, leaving WNBX silent until new operators could be found.
[citation needed] Former sister station WCFR-FM on 93.5 was sold separately from the AM WCFR in 2001 and was moved to Swanzey, New Hampshire, in 2008 (it is now WEEY).
WFYX was known as WCFR-FM until owner Nassau Broadcasting, which at one point had planned to sell WPLY in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, parked the WPLY-FM call letters on 96.3 in Walpole, New Hampshire.
