History

The station signed on the air as WMTL-FM on October 29, 1967. It first served as a full-time FM repeater of sister station WMTL-AM for its first 21 years on the air.[2] It did not become a separate station until 1988, when the FM station's callsign was changed to the current WKHG, and began broadcasting its Hot Adult contemporary format.[3]

From 1999 until 2012, the station also broadcast the NFL's Tennessee Titans football games from the Tennessee Titans Radio Network.
