All three stations have been licensed to the Louisville Public Media consortium (formerly Public Radio Partnership) since 1993. Prior to the university giving the station out and being a member of the Partnership, WUOL unintentionally competed with WFPK for the local audience for classical music.

The station was reassigned the WUOL-FM call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on March 19, 1982.[1]
