History
Previous to its sports trimulcast. 97.5 WQSK (then WIGY) and 1280 WFAU simulcasted the (then) sports format of WSKW and WHQO (now WFMX). WQSK also simulcasted WGUY Dexter, Maine and WKCG in the 1990s. WFAU was an Adult Standards format and WRKD (now WVOM) was a talk station carrying Rush Limbaugh, however for a time they were affiliated with ESPN Radio. The station also has carried New York Giants football, but elected to carry Westwood One's football coverage for the 2007 NFL season.
End of simulcast
In the summer of 2013 owner Blueberry Broadcasting dismantled the network, selling off WFAU (which became WJYE in 2014), switching WRKD (by then known as WVOM) to a simulcast of WVOM-FM/WVQM and WIGY (which would change call letters to WQSK) to a simulcast of WQSS/WKSQ.
