The station struggled for years and was sold in 1989 to Wheeler Broadcasting inShawano, Wisconsin, who slowly introducedcountry music format by mixing it with its then-oldies format and progressed to make it all-country. Due to the large distance of other Wheeler Broadcasting holdings in relation to WOMA, Wheeler unloaded it to Nicolet Broadcasting in 1992 for $150,000.[3]
Shortly after the sale, offices were moved toLuxemburg, Wisconsin, to be closer toGreen Bay. The format changed to a "soft oldies" (big bands/adult standards of the 1940s through the 1960s). The frequency was later changed to 96.7 MHz in order to increase their broadcast range andcall sign changed to the current WBDK.[4]
Nicolet Broadcasting sold WBDK, its translator, and three sister stations to Mazur, LLC effective December 2, 2019, for $1.5 million.
