Its studios are in West Palm Beach and its transmitter is located west of Interstate 95 near Palm City, Florida.Timelineas WOVVBefore its move to West Palm Beach, WOVV was one of the first FM outlets on the Treasure Coast and operated beside WIRA in Fort Pierce, Florida. For many years, both stations broadcast from a downtown riverfront location on Melody Lane. In the late 60s, WIRA-FM separated programming from WIRA to become WOVV and in 1971 the station's Top 40 music era began when the station adopted an automated contemporary format from Drake-Chenault known as "Solid Gold Rock and Roll." At that time solid gold did not refer to exclusively oldies but was instead a fairly even mix of oldies and contemporary Top 40 hits. In 1972 the station began 24-hour operations and also began featuring progressive rock music at night.December 1985: -- Program Director Bill James is replaced by Bobby Magic from Cleveland as station ends four years of "live assist automation." Linda Hendry moved from evenings to midday, replaced in that slot by Mike Schneider. Dr. John Leeder left to manage a Port St. Lucie video store, and was replaced by Nick Caplan of Buffalo, New York.
