WMTT-FM


WMTT-FM is a radio station broadcasting a classic rock format. Licensed to Horseheads, New York, United States, the station serves the Elmira-Corning area. The station is currently owned by Seven Mountains Media, and features programming from ABC Radio, Premiere Radio Networks and Jones Radio Network.
WPGI was roughly modeled after sister station WPIG in Olean. Like WPIG, WPGI's morning show is known as "The Morning Pigpen", and the two stations have some syndicated programming in common. Afternoons are with longtime market veteran "Chris P. Bacon".
The station originated in 1970, with call letters WQIX, with a modern country format. Studios in Horseheads, shared with sister AM WIQT, and transmitter on Prospect Hill north of the village. Construction was by Chief Engineer C Michael Scullin with John Mulligan. It was owned then by retailer Manny Panosian and John Arikian, dba Chemung County Radio. Program Director was David G. Ridenour and General Manager Bob Johnson. Along with the rest of Backyard Broadcasting's New York assets, the station was sold to Community Broadcasters, LLC effective August 26, 2013, at a price of $3.6 million.
On October 1, 2013, WPGI rebranded as "100.9 The Wolf".
WPGI, along with the other stations in Community Broadcasters' Southern Tier portfolio, was sold to Seven Mountains Media in January 2019. Whether Seven Mountains will rebrand the stations with their in-house "Bigfoot Country" brand remains uncertain.
On July 3rd, 2020, WPGI flipped to Classic rock as "101 The Met", as part of a 5 station format swap, where WMTT moved from 94.7 to 820/101.3, with 100.9 starting to simulcast the new WMTT. WPGI changed its call letters to WMTT-FM to reflect this change. WMTT-FM's former country format moved to 94.7/96.1/97.1 as "95-96-97 Bigfoot Country".
