History
[edit]In 2003, WDNY-FM moved from its original location at 129 Main Street to a new office and studio at 195 Main Street. The new location is within a historic Main Street building and still contains the original ornate tin ceiling. On October 28, 2011, WDNY-FM changed hands from Miller Media Inc. to Genesee Media Corporation.
The station is well known for its local service to the Genesee Valley, Western Finger Lakes, and Southern Tier areas of New York State.
WDNY-FM's Five-County News was broadcast live in the mornings with News Director Terry Van until his retirement on December 24, 2010.
On March 25, 2013, WDNY-FM changed its call letters to WMRV.
On February 22, 2017, WMRV changed its call letters back to WDNY-FM.
On December 18, 2017, WDNY-FM changed its format from adult to classic rock, branded as "Classic Rock 93.9".[2] On January 28, 2018, it began airing the syndicated Pink Floyd program Floydian Slip.
On March 11, 2019, Hold Fast Media, Inc. owned by Don MacLeod took over the operations of WDNY and WDNY-FM.[3] On July 27, 2020, Hold Fast Media, Inc. returned the station to Genesee Media Corporation.
On May 5, 2025, WDNY-FM changed its call letters to WDXT to avoid confusion with WDNY, which has its own FM translator at 105.7.[4]
