History of Streetz 94.5 FM:
Originally in 2003, Streetz applied for getting permission to go on air. It aired its transmission first time officially in July 2007. In the same year, it requested to use 105.3 frequency with the call letters W287BI. It was June 23, 2012, when it first time used its branding name “Streetz 94.5.” In the same year, it also switched to its current format, hip-hop.
In April 2015, it bought another station WFDR-FM. This purchase proved to help eradicate the biggest obstacle in the way of the station. That hindrance was in the way to expand the boundary in the Atlanta area. That channel now also airs another broadcaster, WSTR-HD3.
The network also purchased WIPK FM 94.5 in January 2015. It started simulcasting on WIPK in the area of northwest Georgia. The situation was similar to the other two channels, WTSH-FM, and W296BB on 107.1. Both stations cover northwest Georgia and metro Atlanta, respectively.
