History

The 800 kHz was originally used by a R&B formatted station WBOK in the 1950s until they moved over to 1230 kHz in 1962. But at the same time WSHO, which was at 1230 at the time, moved their Broadway showtunes and call letters over to the current signal. In the late 1960s they switched to Country until 1978, when they dropped the format for Adult Standards. In the early 1980s they dropped that format for its current one.
