WZJZ is a commercial radio station located in Port Charlotte, Florida, broadcasting to the Fort Myers, Florida area on 100.1 FM. WZJZ airs a Top 40 (CHR) music format branded as "Y100".

History

In the late 70s, 100.1 in Port Charlotte, FL had the call letters WEEJ and played an all disco format^[1] and throughout most of the 1980s an adult contemporary format until switching formats various times throughout the 1990s.

On March 21, 2007 WZJZ, when it was a Smooth Jazz station, moved from 107.1 FM to 100.1 FM, swapping frequencies with country-formatted WCKT.

Z100

On 3/29/09 at midnight WZJZ began to play the same portion of the song "I Like To Move It" by Reel 2 Real repeatedly in preparation for a format change. The new station was slated to be called Move 100.1. On March 30, 2009 WZJZ flipped to a very upbeat-type Rhythmic Adult Contemporary direction and adopted the "Z100" moniker (its logo patterned after its Top 40 sister station in Portland, Oregon).

Y100

On July 25, 2011, after a weekend of stunting, WZJZ flipped to Top 40/CHR, billing themselves as Y100.^[2] The station's format and logo is patterned after its sister station in nearby Miami, WHYI, but is customized for Southwest Floridians. The flip to Top 40 now gives Clear Channel's Fort Myers cluster two Top 40s, as they also own Rhythmic Top 40 WBTT.
