History

The station went on the air as WTTI on June 17, 1965 and broadcast a country music format. At that time the station was owned by WTTI broadcasters, and was located in the First National Bank building in Dalton. The station had its first ownership change in September 1971. In 1972, WTTI was broadcasting a contemporary music format. In 1985, the station's format was again Country music. WTTI had its second ownership change in September 1986, and was then airing an adult contemporary music format. The station was sold for a third time in 1987. The new owner was Pye Wilson Broadcasting, who switched WTTI to a Christian music format. The station was sold to Troy Hall who continued the Christian format through Troy Hall Broadcasting. In 2009, Deborah and Jim Boyd (Hope Broadcasting, Inc.) took over ownership with a Praise and Worship (Christian music) format. In July 2016, a FM translator was added to WTTI at 93.3 FM.
