FM History Profile: WEYY

History:

This station was put on the air by WEYY-AM in 1973, with the WHTB calls and an automated AC format. The calls were changed to WEYY-FM when WEYY-AM's frequency moved to Oxford, AL.

Now it gets interesting!

The WHTB calls originally belonged to Talladega's first FM station, put on the air in the late 50's (on 97.1 MHz) by WNUZ-AM. That FM frequency was moved to Sylacauga, and the WHTB calls were adopted by this station, whose frequency (92.7) was moved from Birmingham to Talladega. Then WEYY-AM's frequency was moved to Oxford. A whole lotta movin' goin' on!
