WCBS is the dominant Class A signal on 880 AM.
The station was formerly known as WKDA. Under this name and its former 1240 kHz frequency it broadcast from the Stahlman Building in downtown Nashville for many years, becoming the first Nashville radio station, in the early 1960s, to convert to an all-rock music format. WKDA attempted to make its disc jockeys into major local celebrities, as had become the rage in many large U.S. cities.
WKDA's listenership went into decline in the late 1960s, under withering competition from WMAK, WLAC, and especially the switch of music listeners in general, and, at the time, rock listeners in particular, to FM. By 1970, WKDA had changed to a country music format. In the 1980s, WKDA had an oldies format. By the 1990s, WKDA wound up in the hands of veteran Nashville broadcaster and entrepreneur Teddy Bart, who brought in a news-talk format featuring his own show, "Roundtable," which began on WLAC in the 1980s, and CNN radio, until it was sold to other owners who introduced gospel and rechristened it WNSG.
