WLHC (103.1 FM) is a radio station broadcasting an Adult Standards/MOR format.[1] Licensed to Robbins, North Carolina, USA. The station is currently owned by Woolstone Corporation.[2]

In addition, WLHC also broadcasts a wide variety of music, including bluegrass, jazz, big band, and inspirational music on the weekends. Rick Azar is a weekend personality on the station, hosting a Sunday night jazz program.[3]

For a time, it has featured programing from Citadel's Timeless radio network until it ceased operations in February 2010. As of right now, the Oldies/Standards format is provided locally.

WLHC Life 103.1 won the 2013 Radio Station of the Year Award (Non-Metro) by the North Carolina Association of Broadcasters at their meeting in Greensboro in June 2013. President Alan Button gave high praise to his employees for a job well done and this to include Steve Koranda, who died from cancer on 2012, because he set the standard for WLHC Life 103.1 in 2012 to get this award.[4]
