[edit] Nine FM

The current Nine FM format originally started out on 99.9 FM, and had rimshot coverage into Chicago. With owner Newsweb's purchase of three other rimshot stations, Nine FM's programming expanded to WKIE (92.7 FM) in the north suburbs and WDEK (92.5 FM) west of the Chicago area. The third station, WKIF was broken off from the trimulcast due to overlapping with the stronger WRZA signal and began airing the audio feed from CNN Headline News.

Sky Daniels was the original program director for Nine FM. When he left in 2005, he was replaced by Matt DuBiel. Nine FM's format tightened a bit over time, to attract more casual listeners, eliminating many of the more obscure songs on the station's playlist.
