Greetings. I am a PR listener from Plattsburgh, NY, and whenever I hear your call letters, WOSR, I am reminded of its origin. You might not know that the previous owner of WOSR was the prisoner radio station at the former Ohio State Reformatory, Mansfield. As a high school teacher at the "joint" from 1969 to 1971, I was WOSR's program adviser for the prisoner-operated station (I still have a couple of promotional record album covers with WOSR Property printed on them). OSR is now a museum, having closed in 1990, and was the film location for Shawshank Redemption and several other Hollywood movies. Your station must have been the first reassignment (1992) of the call letters.
