Radio One flipped WLNK-FM (107.9 The Link)/Charlotte to "Mix 107.9" at 3pm on Friday. The new format, featuring music from the 90s, 2000s and today, will be anchored by Matt & Ramona In the Morning (6-10am) followed by Drew Parham (10am-3pm), Madison James (3-7pm) and Holly Haze (7pm-midnight). The station will also host three 24 song sweeps throughout the day.

"As people head back to work and our lives return to some normalization, now is the perfect time to launch Mix 107.9," said WLNK Brand Manager Terry Foxx. "People will relate to the music, and we've put together some of the best talent in the industry. We will be live and local in Charlotte every day."

"We asked the Charlotte listeners what they wanted from a radio station, and Mix 107.9 is a direct result of what those listeners told us," added Marsha Landess. "We're excited to bring engaging and entertaining on-air talent combined with the best upbeat Mix of music from the 90s, 2000s and today to the airwaves of Charlotte. Our listeners are going to love listening to the music. The station will continue to have a large commitment to community service and making a difference in the lives of those living in our community. It truly is the best Mix Charlotte has told us they wanted."
