The station was assigned the WWQB call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on March 28, 2011.[3]
On May 20, 2026, WWQB dropped its simulcast with WMXE and launched an Americana/bluegrass format now simulcast on WSCW and operated by LM Communications under a local marketing agreement, branded as "102.3 The Hound". Both stations carry a similar format to that of LM-operated WZNN in nearby Lexington, Kentucky; notably, to help differentiate, this station places a similar region-local focus on Appalachian music, semibranding the format as "The Sounds of Appalachia".[4]
