This station originally bore the call letters WWBZ and was licensed to
Vineland, New Jersey . WWBZ operated from 1946 to 1989, then went silent. In 1990 it moved to, and petitioned to change its city of license to, Washington Township and returned to the air as WVSJ ("We're Very South Jersey"), carrying mostly talk programming. WVSJ was one of the first Philadelphia-area stations to carryRush Limbaugh on weekdays, but lost rights to the program when it was picked up by WWDB. In 1992 the station adopted a country music format and became WNJC ("New Jersey Country"), shifted to Spanish-language programming by 1994, then evolved into its current brokered format.In 1994 the station was rescued from bankruptcy by legendary radio engineer Michael Venditti and his partner John Forsythe. Michael Venditti died in April, 1998. The station is still owned by John Forsythe.
