CatCountry 98.7 (WYCT) is a 100,000-watt FM radio station that was built from the ground up in 2002-2003. The station was started on 40 acres of raw timberland where a new 942-foot tower in Baldwin County and an associated “hurricane proof” blockhouse were built. WYCT debuted as Christmas Radio 98.7 in November 2003, and switched to Country music on December 26, 2003.
