Under the direction of Director of Programming Rob Harder, Operations Coordinator Brett T. On OctoWRUF-FM made the format change from rock to country, branded as "Country 103.7, The Gator". The "Rock 104" name and format will move to an internet-only station. On October 11, 2010, the University announced that WRUF-FM would switch to a country music format in the near future.
WRUF became an album-oriented rock station identified as "Rock 104" beginning in 1983. The hit format had previously been played for many years on WRUF-AM, so technically, it was an easy switch, though many of the important powers at the University disfavored putting pop music on the FM. The hit radio format was adopted because another local FM station, had recently switched to playing hits on the FM with great success. WRUF played a Top 40 style hit radio format from 1981 to 1983. Prior to 1981, WRUF played beautiful music and classical music under the moniker "Stereo 104," except for a Saturday-night disco music program from 1979-1980 called "Studio 104." WRUF-FM has been a country station since October 2010. The station has been on the air since 1948.Īlthough the station is owned by a public university, the station, like AM sister WRUF, is operated as a commercial station in contrast to sister station WUFT-FM. The station is currently owned by the University of Florida. Licensed to Gainesville, Florida, United States, the station serves the Gainesville/Ocala area.
WRUF-FM (103.7 MHz) is a radio station broadcasting a country music format.
