History

WFSY went on the air as WGNE-FM in 1971, an FM simulcast of AM beautiful music station WGNE. Because of its position at 98.5 MHz, its callsign was advertised as standing for "Genie Ninety Eight", rather than the AM station's, which just represented its tagline, "Genie Radio".
After the AM station was sold to Gulf Coast Community College in 1982, the station flipped to an oldies format, which lasted until 1986.
In 1986, WGNE-FM became WFSY, marketed as "Sunny 98.5", and flipped from oldies to AC.
In 1997, WFSY, WPBH, WDIZ, and WPAP were sold to iHeartMedia.
