WURB was originally licensed as a "daytime only" station to protect the nighttime signal of "clear channel" station WRVA in Richmond, Virginia. However, WURB now broadcasts at night with an FCC approved power of 8 watts.

On December 15, 2017, the station flipped from its gospel programming to its current Spanish Urban format. On January 3, 2018, it changed its call sign from WRMQ to WURF, and then to WURB on June 19, 2019.
