History

The station began broadcasting in 1982, and held the call sign WTLG.[1][2] It was owned by Starke Christian Education Radio & TV and aired a southern gospel format.[1][4] In 2008, the station was sold to American Family Association for $225,000, and it became an affiliate of American Family Radio.[5][6]

In 2014, American Family Association traded WTLG and KNDW in Williston, North Dakota to Educational Media Foundation, in exchange for WVDA in Valdosta, Georgia.[7] WTLG became an affiliate of K-Love.[8] On December 15, 2014, the station's call sign was changed to WCKL-FM.[2] On March 12, 2018, its call sign was briefly changed to WLUP-FM, after swapping call signs with 97.9 in Chicago.[2] On March 19, 2018, its call sign was changed to WLSF.[2]
