I believe your right trusty. When Hot 97.5 became Hot 107.9, 97.5 was flipped to Praise.

102.5 was a college translator in Cobb County. When 102.5 signed on as Majic or Magic IIRC, the translator moved. I think to 100.? And Q-100 blocked it and it had to move again. Do you remember when everyone thought 102.5 would become Atlanta's first Regional Mexican formatted station? That was when it was still a CP.

WGHR, the Southern Tech radio station.  It was not a translator but a class D LPFM.  It tried to move to 100.7 and also 101.1.

107.5 first debuted in 1998 as a "Jammin Oldies" station, then became Smooth jazz when Cox dumped WJZF for Kiss 104. I remember when they first signed on in 1998, they stunted with Stevie Wonder "Just Enough for The City" for about a week. It was actually a good station. Prior to this, there was a Moody Babble Institute Translator licensed to Roswell (think it was on Sweat Mtn) on that frequency.
