WDJO (1160 AM) is a radio station licensed to Florence, Kentucky in the Cincinnati, Ohio metropolitan area that carries an oldies format.

History of the WDJO Call Sign

The WDJO call sign was previously used by another oldies station from 1985 to 1990 in the Cincinnati area. This station replaces the old News Talk station under the WBOB callsign. Former WSAI Good Guys Dusty Rhodes (Hamilton County Auditor), Roger Kay, Jack Stahl and Ted McAllister will do the duties weekdays. Joe London and Craig Roberts will host weekeends. Rhodes and his partners are operating the station under a management agreement with the current owner, Christian Broadcasting Systems.

Why WDJO?

The road to WDJO began about five years ago when Rhodes was fired from WGRR, then the reigning oldies station in Cincinnati. Along with his firing went a slight change in WGRR's format, from 50's and 60's rock to 60's and 70's rock. Rhodes was off the air for a period of time, and then began a two year stint as Clear Channel's morning man on the newly re-formatted WSAI 1530. That ended in about January of 2005, when Clear Channel changed the format again and terminated all the on-air personalities.
