[edit] History

WFSP, from its beginning to 2006, carried a "bright" adult contemporary format, mostly from ABC Radio. The station went under the branding "Sunny FM 107.7". In 2006, WFSP switched to oldies with ABC "True Oldies Channel" format and switched their branding to "The Oldies Channel 107.7".

[edit] Programming

WFSP carries local programming, news and sports shows from West Virginia Metro News, and NASCAR racing from MRN and PRN. WFSP has a very small news staff and carries local news reports during the morning drive. WFSP-FM is one of a very few stations that go off-the-air at Midnight (coming back on the air at just before 5am).

[edit] Service area

WFSP's studios and tower are along West Virginia Route 7 west of Kingwood. WFSP's signal covers most of Preston County and eastern sections of Monongalia County and eastern sections of Barbour County, including the town of Grafton.
