Ocala: A True Oldies Town
• JVC Media of Florida is bringing the biggest hits of the ’60s and ’70s back to North Central Florida with the launch of True Oldies Y100.1/Ocala, FL, using the HD-2 channel of Country-Rock hybrid WXUS (US102.3) — and completely commercial-free!
“True Oldies Y100.1 is the perfect radio station for the Ocala and The Villages area,” said Charlie Lombardo, SVP of Programming for JVC Media. “We custom designed the radio station to play the artists that we grew up LOVING, like Elvis, The Beatles, Elton John, The Rolling Stones… it’s the best music of all time, and together with legendary DJs like Scott Shannon and our local guys, it’s what made radio great growing up in the ’60s & ’70s. We’ll be live and local on the radio with theme weekends, great giveaways… and FUN!”
That enthusiasm is infectious — just ask Sam Gerace, GM of JVC Ocala-Gainesville, who commented, “True Oldies Y100.1 is exactly what is missing on the radio in Ocala and The Villages. We are bringing FUN radio to North Central Florida; our listeners love singing along to great music, interacting with live DJs, and being community oriented — we are super-serving this market and know the community will embrace Y100.1!”
JVC EVP Shane Reeve added, “Our newest North Central Florida radio station, True Oldies Y100.1, will specialize in live and local radio personalities playing great music that makes you feel good. In addition to Q92.9 (WMFQ) and US102.3, we are better positioned to super-serve our local community — both listeners and business owners — with great events, music, promotions and RESULTS!”
