History
"The Million Dollar Sound of WGMA" began in the mid-1960s as a middle of the road station. It was a daytimer, required to go off the air at night, and broadcast with only 1,000 watts. Artists included Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Barbra Streisand and Dean Martin.

It later switched to country music as WGMA "The Country Giant." The power was boosted to 5,000 watts around the clock, using a four-tower directional pattern, day and night. See History of WGMA The Country Giant, 1967-79 WGMA was located at the Hollywood Federal building on Washington Street and 441, and the transmitter was at 9881 Sheridan Street.

Singles-only station WADY "The Lady", went on the air on March 1, 1980. On July 1, 1980, the station changed its call sign to the current WLQY.

WLQY, first known as "Lucky 13", used the syndicated "Music Of Your Life" adult standards format.
