--the former WFGO; that station has since changed format and calls in 2007. There was also an Oldies based "Froggy" station in Austin, Texas KFGI 94.7 which changed formats in 1994.) Although the frog logo is shared among these stations, most of them are not associated with each other. The "Froggy" branding is particularly common among country stations currently or formerly owned by Forever Broadcasting or Forever Communications.

General theme

The Froggy branded radio station uses jargon that usually refers to a frog, such as where the frog lives (in a pond), how a frog moves (hops), what noise a frog makes (cricket or ribbit), and other words that are related to frogs.

Examples of the "Froggy" theme use words like the following:
  • "Hop-Line," "Frogcast," "Froggy Fotos," "Local Hoppenings," "Hoppy Birthday," "Froggy Fun Fones," "Froggyland," "in the swamp."
  • Some of the stations incorporate the lingo into their coverage area. For example, Froggy 101 in State College, PA, refers to Happy Valley, the area in and around State College, as "Hoppy Valley." Most also call their coverage area "Froggyland".
  • An occasional "ribbit" between songs is used sometimes instead of a sweeper, jingle or dry segue.
  • Listeners are encouraged to "give us a ribbit on the hoplines."
  • Big Frog 104 in Utica, NY used to close out its weather "frogcast" with a jingle that sang "you sing 10 songs in a row and you're such a good friend of mine," to the tune of Three Dog Night

    that went "Hey now Froggy/You sound so fine/Ridin' 'round in my Murky 49/Crazy 'bout my Froggy/I'm crazy 'bout my Froggy/Gonna turn up my Froggy, cruisin' up and down the road. Uh-huh." These are called "Froggy Songs" that most stations play periodically throughout the day. There are many different kinds. WFGS in Murray, KY offers some of the "Froggy Songs" as free ringtones http://froggy103.com/pages/1195622.php.
