History:

Put on the air in 1950
as WMSL-FM by WMSL-AM. Became WHOS-FM in the late 50's. For a long time,
the station was part of a simulcast with another lower power local FM licesened
to Meridianville. The calls were WWXQ (the other station was WXQW), oldies
formatted as "WXQ, Cool 92/94".

This station was sold
to Cumulus from Clear Channel in 2005 as part of a big shake up of the
radio dial in the Tennessee Valley. WWXQ began simulcasting WVNN-AM after
WLAY-FM (now WQRV) moved to Huntsville, from Tuscumbia, in April 2006.
The calls also changed to WVNN-FM.
