History

WVUS began broadcasting as WVVW in 1948. The station switched calls to WKGA in July 1982.

WVUS would become country formatted WTBZ and begin simulcasting then co-owned WTBZ-FM (now WDKL).

Logo used until May of 2008.

In August 2002, WTBZ-FM was sold to Educational Media Foundation (becoming a K-LOVE affiliate), while WTBZ-AM dropped country for a Rhythmic Contemporary Hit Radio format.

On May 6th, 2008, WTBZ became WVUS in the first step as becoming a "new station". Owner Appalachian Radio has an application to move the station from AM 1260 to AM 1190 and increase the station's daytime power to 4,500 watts.

On August 8th, 2008, WVUS officially began broadcasting on AM 1190.
