[3] WDNT was the first radio station licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to serve Dayton.

[3] The station maintained this affiliation through the 1970s and broadcast a full service country music format to Dayton, Tennessee, and surrounding Rhea County.

[11] In September 1982, WDNT Broadcasting, Inc., reached an agreement to sell the station to Eaton P. Govan III.

[14] George R. Johnson, doing business as Dayton Broadcasting Company, contracted to sell WDNT and its assets to Walter E. Hooper III in October 1993.

[15] In March 2002, station owner Walter E. Hooper III reached an agreement to sell WDNT to Chattanooga-based Brewer Broadcasting through its J.L.

[17] Construction and testing were completed in December 2003 so the station applied for a new broadcast license to cover these changes.

The only time during the week that the stations did not share a program stream was on Sunday mornings when each broadcast a different local church service.

[22] While the sale was pending, Whitfield Communications began operating the station group under a local marketing agreement on December 1, 2007.

[23][24] In November 2009, Whitfield Communications spun off the two Rhea County-based AM stations (WDNT and WXQK) to Beverly Broadcasting Company, LLC, for just $27,000.

[29] For most of the 2010s, WRHA broadcast an oldies music format similar to, but not always in simulcast with, sister station WDNT (970 AM, Spring City, Tennessee).

[31] In addition to music programming, WRHA and WDNT would broadcast Rhea County High School football games each fall.

The station promotes itself as "Cleveland's Lite Rock" and is seeking to court listeners in that city, where the translator is located.
