WTUE
WTUE is a classic rock formatted radio station with studios in Dayton, Ohio. Its transmitter is located in Moraine, Ohio and can be heard clearly throughout Southwest Ohio, including nearly all of Greater Cincinnati. Briefly known as WIFE-FM and WTWO, WTUE's beginnings was that of WONE-FM simulcasting sister station WONE-AM which had a Top 40 format until 1967. WONE-FM played Top 40 hits without live personalities when WONE-AM switched to country in 1969. In 1971, the FCC granted permission to boost its power to 50,000 watts and monaural WONE-FM transformed to FM-stereo, and briefly quadraphonic, "the all new W-2" under the programming of Bill Struck, followed by Gregg Mason. In 1974, WTUE was "The Super Ten Four!" with morning personality Gregg Mason, Sean McKay in the 10 am – 2 pm slot, Al Morgan 2 pm – 4 pm, Bill Lyons 4 pm – 8 pm and Dave Michaels 8pm-Midnight. The station was playing Top 40 hits with live DJs until 1976 when it switched to the new and innovative album oriented rock format under the direction of Dave Michaels as Program Director. Gregg Mason was moved to sister station, 98 Country WONE.
