WAQY (102.1 FM) is an American radio station in Springfield, Massachusetts, broadcasting a classic rock format.
Both the Springfield and Boston stations programmed a classical music format overseen by Charles River Broadcasting owner Theodore Jones.
In the mid-1970s, owners Don Wilks and Mike Schwartz decided to put the first automated rock and roll station on the air.
By 1992, WAQY stopped playing current music and completed its evolution from an AOR to a classic rock format.
WAQY's signal covers all of the Springfield, Massachusetts, market, and can be heard as far south as Long Island, New York.
