History[edit]

In August 1998, Fuller Broadcasting Company, Inc., agreed to sell this station to Root Communications License Company, L.P., as part of a five-station deal.[4]

In March 2003, Root Communications License Company, L.P., reached an agreement to sell this station to Qantum Communications subsidiary Qantum of Auburn License Company, LLC, as part of a 26 station deal valued at $82.2 million.[5] The deal was approved by the FCC on April 30, 2003, and the transaction was consummated on July 2, 2003.[6]

On May 15, 2014, Qantum Communications announced that it would sell its 29 stations, including WCJM-FM, to Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia), in a transaction connected to Clear Channel's sale of WALK AM-FM in Patchogue, New York, to Connoisseur Media via Qantum.[7] The transaction was consummated on September 9, 2014.
