WAYA (100.9 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Contemporary Christian format. Licensed to Ridgeville, South Carolina, USA, it serves the Charleston SC area. The station is an owned-and-operated station of the WAY-FM Network.

History

The 100.9 frequency used to be in Walterboro, South Carolina. William Saunders owned WPAL, an AM station at 730. In 1994, Saunders bought the FM frequency and moved it to Charleston, changing to urban adult contemporary, with the letters WPAL-FM.

During the station's days as the hottest local rap/hip-hop/R&B station in the Charleston area, on-air personalities such as Corey Hill, Jae Jackson, Gentleman George and his protege, Jeff Fox, became the station's most-popular personalities.
