Bill Wynne took over the stations from his father and ran them until Charles and Sarah Johnson bought WEED in 1988.

[5] In June 2003, WEED returned to English, with news/talk, keeping La Pantera as a part-time show.

[7] In 2002, following Hurricane Floyd, WEED applied for and received authorization from the FCC reduce night-time power from 2.5 kW using a three-tower directional antenna to 28 watts non-directional using a single tower for both day and night operation.
