History
On October 31, 2014, Prettyman Broadcasting announced the sale of WLTF to
West Virginia Radio Corporation (WVRC) for an unknown sum.[4] Included in the same were sister stations WEPM and WICL.[4] WVRC assumed control of the stations, through a Local marketing agreement, on November 1.[4]
The purchase was consummated on February 13, 2015, at a price of $3 million.
On November 24, 2017, the station flipped back to a CHR format and changed its call sign back to WKMZ-FM. The station was unable to reclaim its legacy WKMZ callsign due to the existence of WKMZ-LP in Ruckersville, Virginia.[5]
On April 24, 2019, the station changed its call sign back to WLTF.
On April 30, 2019, WLTF dropped its
adult contemporary branded as "Today's 97-5".[6]
