In November 7, 1947, with 250 watts of power, WROD went on the air as Daytona Beach's third radio station.[3] By 1961, WROD was licensed to operate with 1,000 watts of power during the day. It was owned and operated by Frank Ward in 1981. Featuring Doug Montgomery morning show, Rick Jewel mid-days and Brian F. Mitchell overnights with the Music of Your Life format. The radio station operated from its transmitter site from its beginning to 2005, when its offices moved to 100 Marina Point Drive in Daytona Beach.
