[2] Its studios and offices are in the historic WHBC Building at 550 Market Avenue South in downtown Canton, the station's location for over 60 years.

Weekdays feature local programming in morning drive time with longtime WHBC personality Pam Cook.

Nationally syndicated shows include The Ramsey Show with Dave Ramsey and Markley, Van Camp and Robbins in middays (via Compass Media Networks), Rich Valdes overnight (via Westwood One), as well as Infinity Sports Network programming airing weekday evenings and most of the day on weekends.

Following the establishment of the Federal Radio Commission (FRC), stations were initially issued a series of temporary authorizations starting on May 3, 1927.

[7] On May 25, 1928, the FRC issued General Order 32, which notified 164 stations, including WHBC, that "From an examination of your application for future license it does not find that public interest, convenience, or necessity would be served by granting it.

[11] On March 29, 1941, it was required to change frequencies due to the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement (NARBA).

[12] On November 22, 1963, WHBC's afternoon talk show "Bee Line" was interrupted at 1:41 pm for a bulletin from ABC News concerning the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

As such, WHBC enjoyed enviable dominance in the Canton radio market, although stations from Akron and Cleveland could also be heard.

On March 26, 2007, WHBC ended its long-running Full Service format mixing talk with oldies music.

In November 2014, 20-year veteran sports host Sam Bourquin ended his relationship with the station, after an announcement on WHBC.com and on WHBC's Facebook page.

The station attempted to move Bourquin to a slot in WHBC's morning show, where former Sports Director Jim Johnson had spent the bulk of his career before he retired.
