History

Early years (1981–2011)

In 1979, Slab Fork Broadcasting Company applied to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new broadcast radio station. The FCC granted this permit on March 9, 1981, with a scheduled expiration date of March 9, 1982.[6] The new station was assigned call sign "WPMW" on July 24, 1981.[3] The station began broadcasting under program test authority on September 20, 1981.[2] After construction and testing were completed, the station was granted its broadcast license on May 26, 1983.[9]

In October 1997, Slab Fork Broadcasting Company, L.P., agreed to sell WPMW to Castle Rock Investments, LLC. The FCC approved the sale on December 31, 1997, and the transaction was consummated on January 9, 1998.[10]

In September 2005, Castle Rock Investments, LLC, contracted to sell WPMW to West Virginia-Virginia Holding Company, LLC, for $120,000.[11] The deal gained FCC approval on December 29, 2005, and the formal consummation of the deal took place on March 29, 2006.[12] At the time of the sale, the station was playing a classic rock music format branded as "C-92".[11][14] The new owners had the FCC change the station's call sign to "WVJO" on May 2, 2008.[3] This change was made to match the "Joe FM" branding of the station's adult hits format.

Kiss FM 92.7/102.9 (2011–2019)

On May 19, 2011, WVJO changed their call sign to WKQR.[3] On May 24, 2011, WKQR changed their format from adult hits to CHR/Top 40, branded as "92.7 and 102.9 Kiss FM" and began simulcasting on sister station WKQB. On June 20, 2011, WKQR added the syndicated The Ace & TJ Show morning show.[5]

92.7 The Mix

On January 16, 2019, WKQR changed their format from contemporary hit radio to variety hits, branded as "92.7 The Mix".[1]
