History.
On June 23, 1971, the Federal Communications Commission granted Capital Media, Inc., a construction permit for a new station on 92.7 MHz. The station was assigned the WRHY call sign on September 7, 1971, and signed on for the first time on November 22, 1971. WRHY was granted its first license by the FCC on January 20, 1972.
By 1974, the station was airing a progressive rock format. On May 13, 1976, the FCC granted a voluntary assignment of the station's license from Capital Media, Inc., to Harrea Broadcasters, Inc.
By 1980, the station's format had shifted to AOR. In 1982, the format changed to "contemporary".
The station's license was voluntarily transferred from Harrea Broadcasters, Inc., to Starview Media, Inc., on July 27, 1983. On August 12, 1983, the station switched call signs to WHTF. Its format changed to Contemporary Hit Radio/Top 40 branded as "92 Rock". The format evolved toward classic rock over the next two years, and by the summer of 1985, the station's branding changed to "Starview 92", then "Starview 92.7".
In the early 1990s, the station switched to an Active rock format and re-branded as "Solid Rock 92.7". On November 13, 1995, Hall Communications, Inc., announced the purchase of station. The sale consummated on January 16, 1996.
