WLTQ (AM)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WLTQ (730 AM) is a Spanish radio station in the Charleston, South Carolina, market located at 730 AM and under the name "Viva 730."
The station is an affiliate of the Atlanta Braves radio network, the largest radio affiliate network in Major League Baseball.[1]
[edit] History
WPAL was Charleston's first radio station targeting African-Americans. William Saunders bought the station in 1985 after being a part owner since 1971, and he added WPAL-FM in 1994. In 1998, he sold WPAL to Clear Channel.[2]
Clear Channel changed WSCC to a news/talk format, later adding the 94.3 frequency, which became WSCC-FM. The station was a news/talk station that aired liberal talk shows from Air America Radio (Morning Sedition), (The Majority Report) and Jones Radio (The Stephanie Miller Show, The Ed Schultz Show) using the branding "Progressive 730". In 2005, it began carrying the Music of Your Life standards feed, which was aired until the current format began in March 2008. The talk format continues on WSCC-FM.
