History

WMOH was co-owned originally with former FM sister WHOH (currently Cumulus Media-owned WGRR) by its founder and original owner/operator Fort Hamilton Broadcasting. Both stations went to separate ownership in the 1970s. From its beginnings in the 1950s and through the 1960s, WMOH maintained a middle of the road format before switching to contemporary hits in the 1970s and through the mid-1980s.

The station had been Cincinnati's affiliate for ESPN Radio until July 2007, when it switched to WSAI. WMOH has since become more of a general talk station, featuring talk shows from Salem Radio Network during the day, and CBS Sports Radio at night. WMOH serves as the flagship radio station for Miami (Ohio) University athletics, and broadcasts local high school baseball, basketball, and football games. Since January 2008, WMOH has featured its own morning news and sports talks show, hosted by Chris Theiss and long-time WMOH employee Steve Vaughn.
