History

This station was previously WKVO-FM through most of the '70's, then WMSQ Q105 in the early 90s, until they switched to Country music in 1996 with the letters WANG-FM. Later WANG-FM switched to adult standards. The station switched briefly to Westwood One oldies; on April 17, 2005, the call letters changed to WKOO (Kool 105.1") [http://www.varietyhits.com/variety/markets/newbern.shtml, Retrieved on 2008/04/10.] . On June 13, 2005, the station changed to the Westwood One "Sam FM" adult hits format [http://www.varietyhits.com/variety/archive/june2005.shtml, Retrieved on 2008/04/10.] and the WSSM call letters.

In October 2006, WSSM returned to adult standards.

On March 10, 2008 WSSM picked up the WRQR calls, moved from 104.5 FM in Wilmington, NC.

In late April 2008, the WSSM call letters returned, along with the SAM adult hits format.
