WUGO-FM provided this description of its accomplishments in 2007:

"In Grayson, population 3,800, WUGO-FM has been the source of involvement for 40 years, owned by the same local folks, as a caring, giving full-service station. WUGO features 220 minutes of news daily, aired 32 live broadcasts promoting every major event and 70 local high school games. The 'County Conversations' program featured key issues with weekly panels. GO Radio logged 10,320 minutes of PSAs. A total of 320 different local people were heard on the news/public affairs broadcasts during the year. The station wrote and broadcast a 22-part series on county history, published the 75-page book and distributed 2,100 free copies. Through radio auctions, GO Radio raised $4,300 for eyeglasses. They staged a party for 67 foster kids, collected 645 new storybooks for Christmas, distributed 8,000 school calendars, saluted 1,120 'Persons of the Day' and collected 1,400 sets of socks and underwear for school service centers. Their county clean-up saw local groups earn money for working. GO Radio helped the Relay for Life raise $100,000. 'Nice Going Grants' donated $9,850 to local causes, including $5,000 to build the gazebo in the Veterans park. The staff averages 37 years of local experience, so the station and community are truly one."
