WODE-FM broadcasts using HD Radio, and simulcasts the sports programming of sister station 1230 AM WEEX on its HD2 subchannel.

The station offered an instrumental-based easy listening format, playing cover versions of pop songs, as well as Broadway and Hollywood showtunes.

While the change did not have an immediate impact on Q100's ratings, a burnt-out transmission line in the summer of 1988 forced the station to broadcast on low-power for a period of two weeks.

In 1989, Roth Broadcasting acquired WQQQ and WEEX from Wilks-Schwartz, and later during the last week of August 1989, Q100 switched to a dance-leaning CHR format as "Hot 99.9" under the WHXT call sign.

After an uphill ratings battle with its rival WAEB-FM for almost two years, Hot 99.9 was unable to make any significant gains due to budget and signal issues.

The station was sold to Patterson Broadcasting and became "Oldies 99.9" in the mid 1990s (adding the "point nine" in its handle as more radios employed digital tuners).

In 1997, Capstar bought WODE-FM and WEEX as part of a multi-station deal, but spun the Easton stations off to Clear Channel Communications.

Clear Channel would not be allowed to keep all three stations upon the merger, so it decided to swap WODE-FM and WEEX with Nassau Broadcasting Partners.

Nassau was given cash plus WODE-FM and WEEX, while Clear Channel obtained stations in New Jersey, including WNNJ, WNNJ-FM, WSUS, WHCY, and management agreements for WDLC and WTSX.

WODE-FM, along with nine other Nassau stations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, was purchased at bankruptcy auction by NB Broadcasting in May 2012.

WODE-FM was included in the deal after Goldman Sachs rejected a bid from Cumulus Media for the station.

[7][8] In November, NB Broadcasting filed a motion to assign its rights to the stations to Connoisseur Media.

In late 2013, WODE-FM acquired translator W234AX (94.7 FM), licensed to serve Allentown, from Family Life Ministries.
