WDBO carried the CBS line up of dramas, comedies, news, sports, soap operas, game shows and big band broadcasts during the "Golden Age of Radio".

In 1982, the firm that owned WDBO-AM-FM-TV, The Outlet Company, sold the radio stations to Katz Broadcasting.

As network programming moved from radio to television in the 1950s, WDBO switched to a full-service middle of the road format of popular adult music, news, and sports.

The change in music came shortly after Leesburg's WHLY switched from its adult contemporary format to Top 40.

[5] In August 2011, Cox ended the classic rock format on WHTQ (96.5 FM), and gave it the call sign WDBO-FM, becoming a simulcast of WDBO.

WDBO carried the full ESPN Radio schedule, except for a local program on weekday afternoons hosted by Scott Anez.

On June 24, 2020, Cox Radio announced that WDBO-FM would flip to a Spanish-language hot adult contemporary hits format as WOEX, "Exitos 96.5".

[8] Weekdays begin with a local information and interview show, Orlando's Morning News anchored by Scott Anez.

The rest of the weekday schedule is made up of nationally syndicated talk programs: The Sean Hannity Show, Brian Kilmeade and Friends, The Erik Erickson Show, Markley, Van Camp & Robbins and Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla.

Weekends include shows on money, health, law, pets, home improvement, gardening, cars and food.
