  • WJRZ-FM began broadcasting on July 4th, 1976 from Manahawkin, New Jersey with a Top 40 format that also played a lot of recurrents. The original city of license was Ship Bottom, later changed to Manahawkin, and used the ID "Manahawkin-Toms River". Some of the early slogans used were "Stereo 100" and "FM 100" - later using "Power 100". The station was originally licensed to the Jersey Shore Broadcasting Corporation, which was incorporated in New Jersey in 1974, with Joseph J. Knox, Jr. , as president and founder. The station signed on air as an affiliate of the ABC Radio Network and later switched to AP Radio. The station maintained studios and a 340 ft (100 m). tower on 16 acres (65,000 m) on Beach Avenue in Manahawkin, next to AT&T High Seas Radio Station WOO. The transmitter was later moved to a 500 ft (150 m). tower on 20 acres (81,000 m) off Route 9 in Waretown. The CHR/Hot AC format continued until November 1991, when WJRZ moved to a classic hits format, but went back to CHR by the middle of 1992. In December 1998, WJRZ dropped Hot AC in favor of country as "Jersey Shore Country. " The country format had a mixed reaction from area listeners and failed to attract a significant number of listeners. In June 2000, they flipped to oldies as "Oldies 100," and in 2002 ownership changed to Greater Media.
