[edit] History
Prior to Cox Enterprises buying the station in 1999, the station was a Contemporary Christian outlet. But after the sale that same year it flipped to Dance Top 40 as "95.3 Party" and became a success in the market with its mix of Dance and Hip-Hop product.
But by 2004 they would start phasing Dance product out for more Hip-Hop fare and relaunched itself as "POWER 95.3". The move would pay off for them ratings wise.
WPYO is also one of three Top 40s in the market. Rhythmic rival WJHM and Mainstream Top 40 WXXL are the other two.
