History

WMYB was the first radio station in Myrtle Beach in the early 1950s. The station's format was adult contemporary during most of its later years, when it used the call letters WQOK and WCSE. The letters WKEL were approved but never used, since the station signed off in the late 1980s.

The 1450 AM frequency came back in the late 90s as WKZQ-AM, replacing the 1520 frequency which was daytime-only and had mostly aired the same programming as WKZQ-FM for years. At first, WKZQ-AM played rock. Then it went to sports talk. When NextMedia Group bought the station in 2000, the WJYR letters were moved from 92.1 FM, and most of the station's programming was adult standards from the Music of Your Life network. Since few people listened (other stations played similar music), sports talk returned. Eventually, the call letters changed to WQJM, and talk radio other than sports was part of the format.
