The previous format was talk. On November 5, 2018, WGTN changed formats from talk to country, branded as "Coast Country 107.5".[3] On January 14, 2019, WGTN again changed formats, this time from country to adult top 40, branded as "107.5 Hits FM".[4] Three weeks later that format moved to WXJY.[5] Later in 2019, WGTN began simulcasting on WXJY. On January 1, 2020, WGTN once more changed formats from country to comedy, branded as "The Comedy Station", and ended the simulcast.[6]
In December 2020, WGTN changed to oldies/adult standards from the 1940s to 1960s. On July 29, 2021, WGTN changed to classic country, branded as "Countryfied 107.5".[7]
