WECB-FM ("104.3 The Breeze") is a Soft AC-formatted radio station licensed to Seymour, Wisconsin and serving the Fox Cities and Green Bay areas of Wisconsin. The station is owned by Woodward Communications.
WECB went on the air in 2000 with a 1970s music format under the ownership of Earl and Carol Brooker. Earl Brooker was a local businessman, politician, and long-time Fox Cities radio personality (he worked the 5:30-9:00 morning shift on WECB). Green Bay Gamblers hockey and Wisconsin Timber Rattlers baseball broadcasts were also featured.
On April 1, 2003, the Brookers sold WECB to Dubuque, Iowa-based Woodward Communications, Inc., with the station joining Woodward's Northeast Wisconsin radio cluster (which also includes WAPL-FM, WHBY-AM, WKSZ-FM, WZOR-FM and WSCO-AM). By July 2003, Woodward would change WECB's format to Soft Adult Contemporary as "104.3 The Breeze."
Local personalities on "The Breeze" include Shannon Thomas (middays), Ed Johnson (afternoons), Dayton Kane (weekends), and Karla Moore ("Saturday at the 70s"). "The Breeze" also airs national programs with John Tesh (Sunday-Friday mornings) and Delilah (Sunday-Friday nights).
