Retro 97.9 Kissimmee WRUM-HD3 OrlandoiHeartMedia has launched its Bilingual Soft AC format to a fourth market with the launch of “Retro 97.9” W250CE Kissimmee/WRUM-HD3 Orlando.

Joining the “Magic” branded stations the company has launched in Miami, Fort Myers, Tucson and multiple HD subchannels across the country since last November, that brand was not available for use in the Orlando market due to iHeart AC “Magic 107.7” WMGF.
