The station was assigned the WELB call letters by the Federal Communications Commission.

History

In May 2008, the Elba Radio Company (Doug Holderfield, president) reached an agreement to sell WELB to Rhett S. Snellgrove for a reported sale price of $60,000. The deal was approved by the FCC on June 13, 2008, and the transaction was consummated on July 1, 2008. At the time of the sale, WELB was broadcasting a mixed format of classic country and Southern Gospel music. After the new owner took over, it changed to a full time Southern Gospel format.
