After eliminating all of its local hosts last fall and flipping to a simulcast of sister Sports “680 The Fan” WCNN North Atlanta, Dickey Broadcasting has relaunched “Xtra 106.3” 1230 WFOM/106.3 W292EV Marietta as “Atlanta’s Most Conservative News & Talk Station”.
The newly revamped “Xtra 106.3” will carry a lineup of programming from Premiere Networks and Fox News Radio including Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla in mornings, Glenn Beck from 9am-12pm, Rush Limbaugh from 12-3pm (and 9pm-12am), Guy Benson from 3-6pm, Buck Sexton 6-9pm, and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory from 12-5am.
Most of these show have been absent from the Atlanta market since iHeartMedia flipped 640 WGST to the “Black Information Network” last June. The Best of Limbaugh shows were dropped by Cox Media Group’s 750 WSB/95.5 WSBB last month.
Dickey Broadcasting Company announced today the debut of the new XTRA 106.3FM – Atlanta’s Most Conservative News & Talk Station, effective immediately.
XTRA 106.3FM will broadcast an industry-leading lineup of talk radio programs including “The Rush Limbaugh Show,” “The Glenn Beck Program,” “Guy Benson,” “The Buck Sexton Show,” and “Coast to Coast AM with George Noory.”
“We are excited to announce the return of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Fox News, among many other great names, to the Atlanta market,” said David Dickey, President, Dickey Broadcasting Company. “These voices have entertained and informed generations of Atlantans, and will now continue to do so on XTRA 106.3FM and streaming on the XTRA app. Atlantans deserve great options for their news and information.
