===Q100/Q99.7 (WWWQ)=== The current format for WWWQ originated on January 23, 2001, on 100.5 FM, when that frequency was reallocated to the Atlanta radio market from [[Anniston, Alabama]].<ref>Miriam Longino; Staff, "Hot Hits Q100 heats up market; Top 40 station starts shows today," ''The Atlanta Journal Constitution'', January 23, 2001.</ref> On January 11, 2008, Cumulus announced they would move the Top 40/CHR format of "Q100" from 100.5 to 99.7, and move "99X" to the HD2 sub-channel of 99.7 and 99x.com, at 5:30 a.m. on January 25.<ref>Rodney Ho, "Q100 moving to 99.7, Fram & Craig out at 99X, Regular Guys back?," ''The Atlanta Journal Constitution'', January 11, 2008.</ref><ref>Richard L. Eldredge, "Q100 to take place of 99X; Fram fired," ''The Atlanta Journal Constitution'', January 12, 2008.</ref> The final song on "99X" at 99.7 was "[[Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)]]" by [[Green Day]]. The call signs between the two stations would swap on January 29. (The current WNNX would flip to a mainstream rock format as "Rock 100.5", before flipping to a classic alternative format under the "99X" branding in December 2022.)<ref>{{cite web|url=https://radioinsight.com/headlines/385/q100-atlanta-to-move-to-997-99x-to-go-online/|title=Q100 Atlanta To Move to 99.7, 99X To Go Online - RadioInsight|date=25 January 2008|website=radioinsight.com}}</ref><ref>Rodney Ho, "Radio & TV Talk 1/25: 99X ends with Green Day," ''The Atlanta Journal Constitution'', January 25, 2008.</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://formatchange.com/99x-atlanta-signs-off-q100-moves-in/|title=99X Atlanta Signs-Off, Q100 Moves In - Format Change Archive|date=25 January 2008|website=formatchange.com}}</ref> Under Cumulus ownership, WWWQ briefly moved to a Hot AC format in 2009, but by 2010, had returned to CHR.
