purchasing WABZ-FM in Albemarle, Hicks sold the two stations back to Suburban in 1993. Suburban ran WEGO until its sale to GHB Broadcasting in 2003. For several years ending in 2008, WEGO aired the "Stardust" adult standards format from ABC Radio, which later called itself "Timeless" and emphasized soft oldies. The Morning Announcer was Bob Brown and news was covered by Mark Plemmons. In late November, 2008, GHB announced that the WEGO studios were being consolidated with GHB's other broadcast properties in a studio complex on North Tryon Street in Charlotte.

The letters moved from Concord to the former WAAA in Winston-Salem, North Carolina before the Concord station re-acquired the WEGO callsign in 2018. Early in 2010, WAVO/WTIX added two sports talk programs. Bryce Johnson began hosting "Sports Yapp" at 9 A.M. weekdays in February. On April 5 the show began airing an hour earlier. Also, on April 3, Chris Pardo, who moved to York County, South Carolina in 2008, began hosting "New York Sports Talk", two hours long starting at noon on both Saturday and Sunday. Pardo, the son of announcer Don Pardo, said that WFNZ rarely offered news about New York sports. He found that others from New York wished there was more coverage of their teams. Pardo publicized the
