History:: This station dates back to an original construction permit issued to Big South Community Broadcasting for a noncommercial station on 90.1 MHz, licensed to Hamilton. The permit was originally granted in early February 2022 for 3.5 kW from 302 feet HAAT (Height Above Average Terrain) from a fire watch tower just off I-22 southwest of the city of Hamilton. At the end of February, the station received a modification permit for 6.5 kW at 246 feet HAAT from the same watchtower. In mid-July 2024, a license to cover was filed for this facility.

The station has been reported on air with a Country Music format. It has also been reported that they are soliciting on-air for advertising partners despite being a noncommercial operation.
