WRYD (101.1 FM, "Nash Icon") is a radio station broadcasting a country music format. Licensed to Snow Hill, Maryland, US, the station serves the Delmarva Peninsula. The station is currently owned by Bayshore Media, L.L.C.. From approximately 2000 through the end of 2010, 101.1 was WQMR, a talk radio station. Programming on WQMR included The Radio Factor, The Sean Hannity Show, Mark Levin, Dennis Miller, and Imus in the Morning, with a local show, Power Talk, filling the late morning time slot. On January 10, 2011 at noon, WQMR flipped to an adult hits format, playing variety hits from the 1970s to today; the move destablilized the station's fortunes and began a trend for the station in which it would begin changing formats every few months. On the day of the format change, the hosts of Power Talk explained the reason for the change in format. After eight months, on September 15, 2011, WQMR narrowed their format to 1980s hits, branded as "The 80s Channel" under new calls, WAMS-FM. This format would last less than six months; on March 1, 2012, WAMS-FM changed their format to oldies, simulcasting the True Oldies Channel, a format that would last only three months, as on May 30, 2012, WAMS-FM again changed their format, this time to black gospel; lasting a year and five months, it would be the longest running format on the station since abandoning the talk format. On October 26, 2013, WAMS-FM returned to adult hits, this time using the Jack FM brand.〔http://radioinsight.com/blog/headlines/netgnomes/79446/jack-heads-for-the-delmarva/〕 The station played gospel again in December 2013, then returned to Jack FM in January 2014. On February 3, 2014, WAMS-FM became "X Rock 101" playing 1500 hand picked hits from 1965-2005, and only 4 minutes of commercials per hour. The station rebranded as "101.1 The Ryde" on April 15 of that year, playing rock, alternative and a sprinkling of reggae. On October 7, 2014, WAMS-FM changed their call letters to WRYD to match the branding. The mainstream rock format would remain for the rest of 2014. On December 30, 2014 WRYD flipped format to Nash Icon Country. WRYD's previous rock format would move up the dial to WIJK/105.1. Nash Icon soon gave way to 101.1 The Bull Delmarva's True Country Station. At this time the owner of Cowboy Coast on 17th Street and Coastal Highway, was leasing out the station. On October 5, 2015, with summer being over, and the lease of the station being over, Bayshore Media flipped the format yet again back to Gospel. ==Former logo with 105.1 simulcast== File:WIJKWAMS.png 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「WRYD」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
