Ft. Wayne Welcomes ‘The TwentyFM’
• Sarkes Tarzian Alternative WGBJ (ALT 99.5 & 102.3)/Ft. Wayne, IN recently ended its simulcast on 99.5 (WAJI-HD2), promising something new…
At the stroke of noon on Friday, and as we so broadly hinted on Wednesday, 99.5 flipped to “The TwentyFM,” sporting a tight playlist of the top 20 hottest songs, and no commercials. “It’s a commercial-free summer,” said Lee Tobin, VP/GM of Sarkes Tarzian Ft. Wayne. “We launched on the first day of summer, and we’ll be commercial-free right through Labor Day.”
The TwentyFM is under the command of OM Captain Chris, whocommented, “It’s all the hits, all the time. That’s been said before, but it really applies in this case. Our playlist is only 20 songs. Hence the name: ‘The Twenty FM.’ Every time you turn on the station, you’ll hear one of today’s biggest hits.”
Fear not, Alternative fans — that format continues unabated on 102.3FM. “ALT 102.3 will continue to be where Fort Wayne turns for Alternative music,” said PD Laura Duncan.
