WWYC (1560
History
WWYC signed on in 1946 as WTOD under the ownership of local labor rights attorney
In 1969 the format was changed to country music. WTOD became Toledo's first country music station. In the early 1990s, 1560 simulcasted on WRED 95.7 (now WIMX), this was short lived. WTOD then, became a simulcast station of fellow country station WKKO. With a few exceptions, WTOD was a full time simulcast of WKKO until 2004.
In the fall of 2004, the full-time simulcast of WKKO was dropped in favor of Syndicated Conservative Talk Radio. Programming included Neal Boortz and Dave Ramsey. The Weekends featured brokered programming, including Annunciation Radio. This was a Catholic-based religious show that would later wind up going full time on WNOC.
In March 2010, it was announced that WTOD would be acquired by CSN International (the Christian Satellite Network). On April 23, 2010, the call sign was changed to WWYC.
