History
editWTLC-FM (With Tender Loving Care) had formerly aired on 105.7 FM under various monikers such as Soul Stereo FM 105 WTLC, WTLC 105 FM, Fresh 105 WTLC, Power 105 WTLC, 105.7 The People's Station, 105.7 The Power, Power 105.7 FM, and 105.7 WTLC, before the intellectual rights to the format - but not the frequency - were purchased from Emmis Communications by Radio One in January 2001. (See the WYXB page for WTLC's history at 105.7 before 2001.) Immediately prior to this switch, 106.7 FM operated under the call letters WBKS as an urban oldies station branded as "Kiss 106.7."
106.7 FM also held the call letters WVYJ and WGGR.
