The station is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. who determines its programming in New York using automation, non-local talent, and airs a Top 40 (CHR) radio format. The station's studios are located on Nicholasville Road in south Lexington, and its transmitter is located in rural far east Fayette County, Kentucky.
Its playlist includes Pop, Rock and Hip Hop music. In middays, it carries the syndicated "On Air with Ryan Seacrest." On Sundays, "American Top 40" is heard.
104.5 The Cat is powered at 50,000 watts ERP, with its broadcast signal reaching the eastern suburbs of Louisville, Northern Kentucky suburbs of Cincinnati, Daniel Boone National Forest, Somerset and London.

Its HD-2 subchannel carries an urban contemporary format, simulcast on translator station 103.9 W280DO, known as "Real 103.9."
History[edit]
The station signed on the air on July 30, 1992, as WJGG.[2] It was owned by J.L. Givens Associates. Newport Communications, which also owned WLRS in Louisville, later acquired the station.
It was purchased by Jacor in 1997 and switched to a Top 40 (CHR) format. On May 4, 1999, Jacor was purchased by Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia).[3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
