History:
This station was MOR formatted until 1972, when owner Charles Woods abruptly changed the format to country after reading an trade magazine article on the future of country radio. WTVY had a lock on country music in the Dothan market despite weak signal competition from WLWI in Montgomery and WPAP in Panama City, but has since lost market ground after in town station WDJR flipped to country in 1992.
.
In July 2008 it was reported that all but one of the station's staff walked out of their jobs.  Most apparently headed to a cross-town rival radio company.
