History

The station was assigned the call letters WBLG on 1985-11-01. On 1999-04-30, the station changed its call sign to WBLG-FM and on 2001-03-15 to the current WUHU.

The current format and "WUHU" branding were introduced on April 1, 2001, after a weekend stunt in which the station played the same three songs (each of which featured the word "woo-hoo") repeatedly.

In preparation for the switch, the WRUS Inc.-owned station played Dire Straits' "Walk of Life," which features the word "woo-hoo," and two songs titled "Woohoo" - one by Blur and one by the Rocketeens, throughout the weekend.]
