History
On July 1, 1997 the Saga Communications announced that the company had entered into a time brokerage agreement with Merrimack Valley Broadcasting Corporation, which owned WOXF (96.5 MHz) licensed to Bedford, NH. On July 29, the station's format switched from classic rock to oldies as COOL 96.5. Saga Communications of New England managed and programmed the station while Merrimack Valley retained ownership. In August, Saga bought WOXF for $3.3 million and changed the call letters to WQLL; the sale was consummated November 21, 1997. In 2005, Saga changed the call letters from WQLL to WMLL and switched the format to classic rock, introducing 96.5 The Mill. In August 2011, WMLL shifted to a classic hits format.

“What you don’t understand is that it is possible to be an atheist, it is possible not to know if God exists or why He should, and yet to believe that man does not live in a state of nature but in history, and that history as we know it now began with Christ, it was founded by Him on the Gospels.”
—Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
“The history of persecution is a history of endeavors to cheat nature, to make water run up hill, to twist a rope of sand.”
