[edit] History

WDHC-FM came on the air as WCST-FM in 1965, but later changed to WDHC with the "Down Home County" branding. WDHC was originally on 93.5 FM and moved to 92.9 FM in 2005 with a taller tower and twice the original size and double the original power of 93.5.

WDHC's distant grade signal can be heard in Winchester, Virginia, Hagerstown, Maryland and Martinsburg, West Virginia.

In 2006, WDHC and sister station WCST finally made a presence on the internet of sorts, with a MySpace Group operated by employees of the station. This, to date, is the only online presence WDHC and WCST have had.
