Biography
WOXY "97X" is an Internet-only freeform rock and roll radio station based in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio. It is one of the first stations in the United States to completely transition from terrestrial FM radio to Internet radio (KNAC is a previous example). The WOXY-FM broadcast facilities and license are now owned separately by First Broadcasting.
From September 1983 until May 13, 2004, WOXY had an over-the-air broadcast at 97.7 FM out of Oxford, Ohio. Since it began broadcasting, the station has been a highly-regarded radio station, winning accolades from many prominent newspapers and magazines such as Rolling Stone, Spin, and USA Today and was mentioned in the film Rain Man. The station's first and last song played over-the-air was U2's "Sunday Bloody Sunday."
