    WAZX-FM (101.9 MHz) is a commercial FM radio station broadcasting a Regional Mexican radio format. It is licensedtoCleveland, Georgia. WAZX-FM is owned by WAZX-FM, Inc. The studios and offices are on Venture Drive in Duluth, Georgia. The transmitter is in Clermont, Georgia.[2]

    History[edit]

    In the late 1980s, Terry Barnhardt of Gainesville, Georgia, secured a Federal Communications Commission construction permit to build an FM radio station northwest of Atlanta.[3] The FCC gave the proposed station the call sign WGGA-FM.

    The station first signed on the air in 1989, as WGGA-FM,[4] known on the air as "Georgia 101.9". In 1991, it was bought by Advantage Media for $1.18 million.[5] It later had the call letters WGZM, WCGX before changing to WAZX in 1994.[6]

    In 2001, the station's call letters changed again, this time to WAZX-FM. It was acquired by a firm calling itself WAZX-FM, Inc. The price of the station had dropped since the previous sale. The new owners paid $60,000.[7]
