Programming

102.3 FM signed on as WGTB in 1993, and aired a country format. This lasted until January 1994, when it flipped to adult contemporary. It would later flip back to country, and then to adult standards. In early 1999, the station flipped to Top 40/CHR as "Z102.3", WCKZ.
In March 2001, WCKZ became WEJE, taking the calls and modern rock format of the former "Extreme 96.3," which changed to a country music format. In September 2001, the station rebranded as "X102.3," with new calls following shortly afterward. Following a sale from Summit City Radio Group to Three Amigos Broadcasting, WXTW adopted its Spanish format as "Mega 102.3" and call sign at Midnight on September 1, 2006, but the station itself first went on the air over five years earlier.
On September 21, 2009, WGBJ adopted the slogan "Power 102.3" and flipped from Spanish to a contemporary hit radio format. This move returned top 40 back to Fort Wayne. On February 2, 2010, the station changed on air monikers to "The Killer B102.3"
In the late hours of Saturday, April 3, 2010, WGBJ again changed formats from Top 40/CHR back to a Spanish format and started once again calling itself "Power 102.3". The top 40 format remained absent in the Fort Wayne area until WJFX flipped to top 40 in 2012.
On January 9, 2019, Sarkes Tarzian, Inc. acquired that station for $515,000 and flipped it to a simulcast of WAJI-HD2 which is also heard on W258BY, 99.5 FM in Fort Wayne and is now branded as, ALT 99.5 & 102.3 which broadcasts an Alternative Rock format and the addition of WGBJ extends the formats coverage to the north of Fort Wayne.
On June 20, 2019, WGBJ rebranded as "Alt 102.3" as the 99.5 translator changed to a new format.
