  WBBX (106.1 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a classic hits format. Licensed to Pocomoke City, Maryland, United States, the station is owned by Vinco Media LLC (Vince Klepac). The station was assigned the WBBX call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on February 6, 2020.
  
  ## History
  
  The original call sign of the station was WMYJ in 1992. During two months of 1994, the call letters were changed to WWVV in 1994. While the station was licensed to Great Scott Broadcasting, it was operated under a local marketing agreement (LMA) by Bay Broadcasting. Prior to 2005, the station was a simulcast of WBEY, a country music station.
  
  In 2005, the simulcast ended and the station switched its programming to SAM-FM, a variety hits programming format distributed by satellite by Westwood One.
  
  In August 2007, WKHW dropped the format and the SAM-FM programming. The station overlapped Great Scott's own programming on WKHI which had a similar variety hits format serving the same geographic area.
  
  The station then became known as "K-Rock", broadcasting a classic rock programming format.
  
  ## Silent
  
  In Summer 2008, Bay Broadcasting's LMA with Great Scott Broadcasting ended in a dispute and the station went silent on June 23, 2008. WKHW was granted permission by the Federal Communications Commission to temporarily shut off its transmitter. Granted on August 21, 2008, this "remain silent" authority was to expire on February 17, 2009. The broadcast license for this station would automatically expire as a matter of law if the station did not resume broadcast operations by 12:01 a.m. on June 24, 2009.
