WZJZ will feature the same on-air lineup as Miami with Humberto ?El Gato? Rodr?guez in mornings from 6-10am. Ailyn Luaces will host middays from 10am to 3pm followed by Tony Vargas from 3-7pm. Santiago Duarte will host nights from 7pm to 12am.
iHeartMedia launched the “Magic 93.9 (https://magic939miami.iheart.com)” brand on WMIA-FM Miami on November 24. For its first full-week on the air, the station was ranked first in the 18-49 and second in 25-54 demos in the market.
WZJZ’s Hot AC format ranked tied for eighteenth in the Fort Myers market with a 1.5 share in the November 2023 Nielsen Audio ratings (https://radioinsight.com/ratings/ft-myers/). The new format will target the station against a trio of higher ranked AC’s in Fort Myers Broadcasting’s duo of Soft AC “Wave 101.1 (https://wavv101.com)” WAVV (second with a 5.7 share) and 96.9 WINK-FM (https://winkfm.com) (fifth with a 4.3 share) and Beasley’s “Sunny 106.3 (https://sunny1063.com)”
WJPT (sixth with a 4.1 share).

iHeartMedia Fort Myers announced today the debut of the new Magic 100.1, Tus Favoritas de Siempre, effective immediately.

It’s a blend that caters to a wide spectrum of listeners in the Fort Myers area, and will feature a variety of hits from Whitney Houston, Marc Anthony, Madonna, Lionel Richie, Shakira, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion and more.
?We are thrilled to announce the launch of a first of its kind hybrid format in broadcast radio and streaming to reach and connect with Latino listeners here in Fort Myers.
