Magnum Media's WBKY-FM (95.9) has moved from Portage, WI to Stoughton-Janesville, WI, effective on April 20 after a 21-year arduous journey. Additionally, Magnum is carrying WBKY programming on WSJY-FM-HD4, which also re-broadcasts on Madison translator W258CM which operates on 99.5 FM. The combination of 95.9 and 99.5 provides WBKY with analog vehicle coverage from Arlington to Beloit, plus HD coverage of the Class B signal of WSJY.

Dave Magnum stated, "My two sons, Reid and Ty, were just lads when we started this process. Whenever we reminisce about the umpteen Town and County zoning meetings and hearings, we make sure to have a stout beer in hand." He added, "For WBKY we need listeners to remember just two numerals: 9's and 5's. We are so appreciative of everyone who stood with our family over the years."

Dave Magnum and his late wife, Lynn, started from scratch in 1991 with a Tomah, WI Construction Permit. Magnum Media currently operates 22 Wisconsin radio stations and multiple FM translators.
