 Christy obtained the call letter of the station he had previously consulted in Detroit, WABX (now WYCD), and parked the WABX calls on the former WCRM AM 990.During the AM station's hours of operation, it was simulcast with WCFX, and the stations were identified as "WCFX-FM and WABX-AM".WABX ceased operation in 1988, and its license and frequency allocation were forfeited to the FCC.
