History

[edit]

When it was being built, the station first took its call sign WAIG on May 20, 1994, and changed to WSSH on March 1, 1996. It officially launched in July 1996, airing a soft adult contemporary format, simulcast with 95.3 WZSH in Hartford, Vermont (now WZLF).[5]

Vox purchased the stations from Dynacom in 1999.[6] Vox switched WSSH to the WRSI simulcast on February 1, 2001.[7] The station was granted the WRSY call sign on April 12.[2] Saga acquired WRSI and WRSY in 2003.[8]

  1. 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.
