Unable to compete with KQV in the format, WEEP changed to country music, in which it enjoyed its greatest success, and for which it is best remembered. The station format complemented its then WDSY FM sister station in the 1970s, which was originally WEEP FM. Throughout the 1980s, WEEP continued to simulcast WDSY part of the day until the early 1990s, when it adopted a failed all business news and talk format before its call letters were changed to WDSY AM and the station was a full simulcast of its FM sister. That didn t last long, as a management change resulted in a complete separation of programming between the two stations, with WEEP affiliating with ABC SMN s Real Country format delivered via satellite. By the 1990s AM 1080 had switched to a news talk format before being sold and flipping formats to gospel music as WPGR.
