WRXK-FM (96.1 MHz) is a commercial radio station with studios in Estero, Florida and licensed to Bonita Springs, Florida, broadcasting to the Fort Myers-Naples-Marco Island area. WRXK-FM airs a rock format branded as "96 K-Rock".
History
The station signed on in September 1974 under the call sign "WLEQ" with the branding "96 Super Q". It carried a Top 40 Format. In 1980, the station was re-branded as "Q-96", and affiliated with the Satellite Music Network. In 1986, the station switched frequencies from 95.9 to 96.1 to allow for a power increase to 100,000 watts, changed call sign to WRXK and was rebranded as "96 K-Rock".
On February 13, 2012, WRXK-FM changed its format to hot talk, branded as "96 K-Rock, Talk That Rocks", but returned to rock on June 17, 2013, in preparation for sister station 99X's flip to ESPN programming on June 20.[2]
On July 9, 2018, Beasley Broadcast Group parted ways with Bubba the Love Sponge, whose morning show had aired on WRXK-FM. A new morning show based out of sister station WRIF in Detroit and syndicated to Boston and other markets, "Dave and Chuck the Freak", replaced his show.
