=== As WBAM (1943β1948) === Effective November 1, 1943, the FCC updated its call letter policy to allow FM stations to have call signs similar to those used on the AM band. The station initially chose WOR-FM, but six weeks later changed it on December 14 to WBAM.<ref>[https://archive.org/stream/broadcasting25unse#page/68/mode/1up "Decisions of the Federal Communications Commission"], ''Broadcasting'', December 20, 1943, page 68.</ref> In 1945 the FM band was moved to higher frequencies, and WBAM was initially reassigned to 96.5 MHz, before moving to 98.7 MHz in October 1947.<ref>[http://www.nyradioguide.com/cgi/info.cgi/WEPN-FM "Station Information for WEPN-FM"] (nyradioguide.com)</ref>
