In 1971, the FCC granted permission to boost its power to 50,000 watts and monaural WONE-FM transformed to FM-stereo, and briefly quadraphonic, "the all new W-2" under the programming of Bill Struck, followed by Gregg Mason (Terry Dorsey).

In 1976, the station switched to the new and innovative album oriented rock (AOR) format under the direction of Dave Michaels as program director.

Patty Spitler, Bob Clark, Jim Tobin, Dan Pugh (Dan Patrick), Bill Pugh, Dave Luczak, Kevin Crisler (K.C), Mark Zona (Mark Edwards), Sandy Smith and Alan McConnell were all graduates (or at least attended) The University of Dayton and were all part of their radio program.

Alan Sells, who was hired as a part timer while at suburban Stebbins High School in 1974 was given his first full-time slot holding down the evening timeslot in 1976 until his departure for Cincinnati's WSAI-FM in 1979.

Sue Arenston joined the station from Cincinnati and Sean "The Space Cowboy" Scott was moved to the morning slot.

Scott would soon leave WTUE for WMAD in Madison, Wisconsin, to pursue his desire to program his own radio station.

Mike McConnell would soon become the program director at WTUE to replace Chuck Browning who left the airwaves to take a larger management role at 11 South Wilkinson, where the station had been located.

Dan was partnered as morning host with several other DJs over the years including Sean Scott, Dave Luczak, Major Dick Hale and Jeff Curry.

WTUE is an affiliate of the syndicated The Bob and Tom Show in the mornings and features Dave Alexander middays (10am-3pm) Tony "TNT" Tilford afternoons (3pm-7pm), and Christopher Geisen evenings (7pm-12 mid).
