WDAI (98.5 FM, "98.5 Kiss FM") is a mainstream urban radio station licensed to Pawleys Island, South Carolina, and serves the Grand Strand area. The Cumulus Media outlet is licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to broadcast with an effective radiated power (ERP) of 6,100 watts. Its studios are located on U.S. Highway 17 in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, and its transmitter is located a mile west of the studios. 98.5 signed on October 1, 1993, with an adult contemporary and sports talk format. It moved to an urban adult contemporary format as "98.5 Kiss FM", featuring the Tom Joyner Morning Show, in January 1995. By 1996, WDAI was the number one station in the market. WDAI dropped to third in fall 1998 but regained its position in spring 1999, losing the top spot to WJYR in Fall 1999. The drop in ratings came after a move toward more adult music, with 34-year-old women the target audience, after program director Ernie D. moved to WCMG and Chris Clay replaced him. More rap was added in the 2000s (decade). WDAI leaned more adult after the 2009 debut of Power 100.3, a hip-hop music station also owned by Cumulus Media. More information...
