They were owned by The Fort Industry Company on Huron Street, which added television station WSPD-TV in 1948 (now WTVG).
WSPD-AM-FM were NBC Red Network affiliates, carrying its dramas, comedies, news, sports, soap operas, game shows and big band broadcasts during the "Golden Age of Radio."
It played half-hour music tapes mastered at Susquehanna's studios in York, Pennsylvania, with local announcers Steve Kendall, Mike Stanley, Larry Weseman and Bill Stewart.
A few years later the station began stunting by playing "Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks with a man with a southern accent announcing that something new was coming to WLQR on Monday.
WRVF's morning show featured Toledo radio veteran Jack "Mitch" Mitchell until March 31, 2006.
WMIM switched to a country music format in October 2014, leaving WRVF again as the only mainstream AC station in the market.
Also in the fall of 2014, WRVF backed away from its longtime "soft rock" image and began re-imaging itself as "The '80s to Now," with a slightly more contemporary music mix.
