On January 10, 2008, the station dropped its country format and began simulcasting sister station WQSO; WUBB's website stated "Coming Soon! Sports Radio" with a link to MSN's Fox Sports page, implying that the new format would be Fox Sports Radio. However, this never happened, and this was thought to be put on the website only to throw people off. The following day, the stunt shifted to TV theme songs; in between the songs, there was a message saying "We are building a new station just for you," promoting a new format that would be launched at 6 a.m. on the 14th. At the announced time, the station relaunched as "Kiss 95.3", initially simulcasting WXKS-FM from Boston. Soon after, the call letters changed to WSKX. By August of the following year, WSKX ended the simulcast and ran its own CHR format.
