We trust that with Mijo's leadership, we will create a unique, nostalgic experience for music lovers in Orlando and for every generation to enjoy."

The station kicks off with 10,000 'JAMZ' in a row. Additional on-air announcements will be made in the coming weeks. Mijo also serves as Brand Manager and afternoon drive host for sister WPOW-FM (Power 96), Miami's home for Throwbacks, and Brand Manager of "Radio Libre 790" in Miami.
