WMJX
WMJX is a radio station licensed to Boston, Massachusetts. It broadcasts on 106.7 mHz.
The 106.7 frequency in Boston was first used as WBZ-FM, the FM compliment to 1030 WBZ, and was owned by Westinghouse. The station's earliest use was a classical music format, and later evolved into a combination simulcast of WBZ 1030 and classical music at other times.
In 1971, WBZ-FM became a rock music station as "Stereo 106.7".
In 1981, WBZ-FM was sold to Greater Media, becoming that company's first Boston station. Under the new ownership, the station cut the rock format and shut down the station for most of Fall 1981. The transmission equipment was relocated to the Prudential Tower, giving 106.7 a great signal in Downtown Boston.
On December 31, 1981, the new 106.7 signed on as WMJX "Magic 106.7", using the adult contemporary format pioneered by Greater Media at WMGK "Magic 103" in Philadelphia, and also heard on WMGQ "Magic 98.3" in New Brunswick, New Jersey and WMGC "Magic 105.1" in Detroit, Michigan.
Magic 106.7 is easily one of Boston's most successful stations, and ended up leading WVBF "Boston 105" and WSSH "Wish 99.5" out of their competing adult contemporary formats. Magic 106.7 also has a very popular and well-known nighttime host, David Allan Boucher, who hosts "Bedtime Magic".
