100.9 signed on as WYFA in 1988 as an outlet for the Bible Broadcasting Network. It was sold, becoming WAEW in 1993 and WAEJ in 1994 (The lather as a simulcast of Urban Contemporary formated WAEG as "92.7/100.9 The Bomb").

Radio One acquired the station(s) in 2001 and flipped to a mostly-automated CHR format as "92.7/100.9 The Beat". By 2002, the simulcast with 92.3 was dropped and 100.9 switched to Urban Gospel under the WTHB call sign.

In August 2007, Radio One sold it's Augusta stations (including WTHB) to Perry Broadcasting.
