WEGX (92.9 FM) is a country music station licensed to Dillon, South Carolina and serves the Florence and Myrtle Beach areas.
Danny Bonaduce, formerly of the Partridge Family and talk show host, was one of the station's well-known personalities, second to John Lander and the "Nut Hut".
Some notable talent that were involved with the station: Brian Philips (President of CMT as of 2008), Rick Walker (now KATT Morning Show in Oklahoma City), Sam Malone (now popular sydicated radio host based in Houston, Texas).
After the first year, other personalities came in and out including Max Viera, Welch & Woody, Rumble & Thrower, John Lander, Danny Bonaduce, Chuck Tisa, Lucy St. James, Spyder Harrison, Cadillac Jack, JoJo, Daryle Lee (Party Patrol), Sean Caldwell and Karen Clauss (news).
The format was adult contemporary in the 1980s when WDSC-FM became WZNS Z-92.9 and increased its signal power, already at 100,000 watts, by moving to one of the area's tallest towers, the one already used by WPDE-TV.
[3] Leading up to the switch in format, the station engaged in several stunts meant to attract attention, such as broadcasting the sound of chickens clucking, bouncing balls, barking dogs, running water, and a computerized countdown from 32,084.
