The station is currently owned by Greenup County Broadcasting, Inc.. On September 1, 1982, WLGC radio debuted at 105.5 FM, playing "The City of New Orleans" by Arlo Guthrie.

This hybrid programming was the brainchild of WLGC Vice-President/General Manager Robert Scheibly, who had commissioned a research project to determine viable formats for the fledgling station.

Scheibly left the program director's position at WKEE/WHTN to take on the challenge of creating a new radio station focusing on local community needs.

In addition to the unique music mix, WLGC's early years offered a wide variety of programming tailored specifically to Greenup County, including high school sports and a daily "good news" public service newscast.

On February 10, 2016, long-time morning show host, Mark Justice, suffered a heart attack and died unexpectedly.
