WHKO (99.1 FM, "K99.1") is a country music radio station licensed to Dayton, Ohio. The station is owned by Cox Radio, Inc. With its 50,000 watt signal, WHKO is one of the strongest FM stations in the Southwestern Ohio area, and frequently makes mention of this during on-air promos. K99.1FM is known for playing a mix of both "New country and your familiar favorites" and has historically played more music and less commercials than most radio stations in the Dayton / Cincinnati radio market. With the strong signal and commitment to playing more music than the competition, WHKO has a long history of being near the top of the Dayton Arbitron ratings since it began it's country format in March, 1989. K99.1 also shows up regularly in the Cincinnati Arbitron ratings, as its signal comes in clear throughout the greater Cincinnati market as well.
Early historyOriginally founded in 1946 as WHIO-FM with a beautiful music format which since the 1960s was a kindred compliment to the middle of the road format of WHIO (AM). Though many FMs at first floundered and failed during its fledgling in the 1950s in favor of AM, WHIO-FM remained solid. It eventually became the reigning number 1 station in the Dayton market for many years as FM was considered to be an easy alternative to commercial pop music and the rise of Top 40 and country music on the AM dial during that time. In November 2006 the WHIO-FM calls were resurrected at 95.7 FM in Piqua (the former WDPT) as a simulcast of WHIO-AM's news talk format. WHKO TodayIn March 1989, the calls switched to WHKO and with it the format switched to country. Prior to the switch, the top-rated country station in Dayton from 1969 to 1990 was WONE (AM) which now employs a sports/talk format. SourceExternal links
