History
editIn 2020, WNGZ moved to the 93.1 frequency (with the WNGZ calls parked on AM 1490 in Watkins Glen) and tweaked to a full blown active rock format using the moniker The New Rock Edge. (Undated, WNGZ (AM) 1490 dropped the Wingz 93 rock simulcast and changed to classic hits as My Cool Radio). [3] On July 3, 2020, WNGZ changed its callsign to WPHD[4] and flipped to classic hits as part of a five-station frequency swap.[5]
In June 2021, WPHD changed its format from classic hits (which moved to WGMM 98.7 FM Corning) to Family Life Network's religious format under new WCIM calls.[6]
