History

The station was assigned the callsign WVRS on March 24, 1983. On March 1, 1984, the station changed its callsign to WTIJ; on May 31, 1986, it changed to WGLY-FM.[3] The station began with a predominantly religious format, airing blocks of Christian talk programs and music. The WTIJ callsign stood for "We Trust In Jesus", while WGLY stood for "With God's Love to You". The station became an affiliate of Moody Radio airing a format of Christian music, lecture, campus chapel, listener-interactive talk, and devotionals. The religious format was flipped to WCMK 91.5 in Bolton, Vermontwhich also took the WGLY-FM callsignwhen the station was purchased by Radio Broadcast Services Inc. in 1999.
