30, 1990 from studios in a pizza concession trailer, located in the parking lot next to the destroyed converted farm house which had previously housed the station. Shortly thereafter, Geraldine Taczak would make plans to sell the station. In the following months, the station began simulcasting an urban-contemporary format with the 1540 facility in Niles, Ohio, known as "Network 15 - The City." WOKG took the WANR calls on December 15, 1990, while the 1540 facility assumed the complementary WNRB callsign. The two stations on "Network 15" featured local personalities such as program director/morning host Boots Bell, Sweat William, DC Don Clyde, Will Thomas, and Steve Arnold.

The liberal talk format was operated by Hanni and associates under a local marketing agreement. After a dispute between the station's ownership and the group operating the station, a court settlement returned programming control to owner Beacon Broadcasting. Following the court decision, former Warren steel supply magnate Harold Glunt took exclusive control over Beacon, and soon acquired WGRP and WEXC from Vilkie Communications, WLOA from Holy Family Communications, and former sister station WRTK from D&E Broadcasting. Glunt readjusted Beacon's focus to being a faith-based company that adhered to "family friendly" radio. Following the change in control of Beacon, WANR switched formats to a mixture of Christian and secular oldies music, which featured hosts Michelle Stevenson's local, Gospel artist showcase, and Neil Hagan's urban
