WSGA-FM
WSGA (92.3 FM), known as "92.3 Thunder Country", is a country music radio station targeted towards Savannah, Georgia. It is owned by Richard Pope, through licensee WRGO-FM Radio LLC. The call sign and format were on its sister station WTHG, which flipped to a classic rock format in late April 2006. On March 31, 2008, 92.3 flipped from "Freedom 92-3". WSGA is unique because it was the first station in the Savannah market to flip to the expanding variety-hits format. Within a couple of months, competitor "Oldies 98.3" was changed to a variety-hits format as " 98.3 Jack FM". WGCO has a much better signal towards Savannah, so there had been little enthusiasm for WSGA. On March 16, 2007, WGCO reverted to its previous incarnation as "Oldies 98.3" (like WCBS-FM did that same year). On September 24, 2007, WGCO again changed formats to a mostly 1970s song mix as "BIG 98". In March 2006, FM station 104.7 changed its calls to WTHG and its format to classic rock as 104.7 The Hawk, with the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Radio is the technology of signaling and communicating using radio waves. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves of frequency between 30 hertz (Hz) and 300 gigahertz (GHz). They are generated by an electronic device called a transmitter connected to an antenna which radiates the waves, and received by another antenna connected to a radio receiver. Radio is very widely used in modern technology, in radio communication, radar, radio navigation, remote control, remote sensing, and other applications. In radio communication, used in radio and television broadcasting, cell phones, two-way radios, wireless networking, and satellite communication, among numerous other uses, radio waves are used to carry information across space from a transmitter to a receiver, by modulating the radio signal (impressing an information signal on the radio wave by varying some aspect of the wave) in the transmitter.

Hot Adult Contemporary
Adult contemporary music (AC) is a form of radio-played popular music, ranging from 1960s vocal and 1970s soft rock music to predominantly ballad-heavy music of the present day, with varying degrees of easy listening, pop, soul, R&B, quiet storm and rock influence. Adult contemporary is generally a continuation of the easy listening and soft rock style that became popular in the 1960s and 1970s with some adjustments that reflect the evolution of pop/rock music. Adult contemporary tends to have lush, soothing and highly polished qualities where emphasis on melody and harmonies is accentuated. It is usually melodic enough to get a listener's attention, and is inoffensive and pleasurable enough to work well as background music. Like most of pop music, its songs tend to be written in a basic format employing a verse–chorus structure. The format is heavy on romantic sentimental ballads which mostly use acoustic instruments (though bass guitar is usually used) such as aco ...
