WGYL signed on the air in November 1970.[3] It originally was a Class A station, broadcasting on 93.5 MHz, a frequency reserved at that time for lower powered FM stations. WGYL's effective radiated power was 3,000 watts, a fraction of the 50,000 watts it runs today. It broadcast a beautiful music format of mostly soft instrumental remakes of popular songs.
In 1987, the station was sold to Treasure Coast Broadcasters, teamed up with AM 1490 WTTB, and the two stations remain co-owned.[4] During the late 1980s, WGYL gradually increased the number of vocal songs and decreased the instrumentals; by the early 1990s, the station had made the transition to a soft adult contemporary format as "The Breeze." In the early 1990s, the station got a big boost in power, increasing to 50,000 watts, coupled with a move one spot up the dial to 93.7 MHz.[5]
Through the early 2000s, the station to a mainstream AC format. On September 15, 2015, WGYL changed its format to hot adult contemporary, branded as "93.7 WGYL."[6] The station's moniker became "Today's Best Music!"
