WUOL, along with its sister stations WFPL and WFPK, broadcasts an HD Radio signal. All three stations have been licensed to the Louisville Public Media consortium (formerly Public Radio Partnership) since 1993. Prior to its joining the Partnership, WUOL inadvertently competed with WFPK for classical music listeners in the market.

The station was reassigned the WUOL-FM call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on March 19, 1982.[1]
