History

Larry Carr of Clinton operated WCLN-AM, a daytime-only AM at 1170, and WCLN-FM (then at 107.1 FM) prior to the 1991 purchase of the 16-year-old stations by Willis Broadcasting Corp. of Norfolk, Virginia. The stations' format would be adult contemporary music and oldies ["Virginia Firm Buys Clinton Radio Station," "The Fayetteville Observer", July 13, 1991] .

WCLN-AM and WCLN-FM were Christian when the FM station increased its power from 3000 to 25,000 watts and moved to 107.3 FM to better cover Fayetteville. Curt Nunnery of WFLB became sales manager [Michael Futch, "It's All Christmas, All the Time at WFLB," "The Fayetteville Observer", December 9, 1994.] .

By 1997, WCLN-AM was airing Southern gospel music separately from the FM ["The Cape Fear Region's Information Resources," "The Fayetteville Observer", March 22, 1997.] .
