It was the FM sister station to WDEN (1500 AM), a daytime-only country music outlet, and its full-time simulcast, additionally operating after local sunset.

Two years later, his estate sold the WDEN stations to a limited partnership known as First Macon Communications Corporation, a group of Alabama investors, for $1,026,500.

On September 3, 2009, WIFN began stunting with TV theme songs, with liners promoting to tune in at 1:05 PM the next day for a big announcement.

As a result of coming into compliance with current FCC ownership rules, Cumulus was required to place several stations, including WLXF, in a divestiture trust.

Until May 25, 2016, along with the previous rock format, WROK-FM remained Macon's FM home for Atlanta Braves baseball and Georgia Bulldogs football.
