From 1980 to 1982, Rock 104 went live with "McNally in the Morning" with Program Director/Chief Engineer Tommy "Tom" McNally, and then all of a sudden WMGM FM went 100% live in November 1982 with Mike Boyle, music director Mark DiDia, Russell "Russ" Egan, Karen "K.C." Chamberlain, Eric Johnson, Jim Spector, Rona Richman, Johnny Russell, Al Horner, Tom Sappie, Patrick DeMarco, Kathy Knoll, Al Branca, with Marlon Barrow, and Donna Richards. WMGM FM's power was officially increased to 50,000 watts in 1985 with a higher tower, but management declares that "Rock 104 WMGM" was a thing of the past and it was time to evolve, so the station was renamed "104/MGM" in 1986.
