The 1340 frequency was previously known as WFAU; in 1994, itscall sign andnostalgia format moved to 1280 AM, while 1340 became religious station WMDR. (The 1280 frequency became WJYE in 2014 andWHTP in 2020). In May 1998, WMDR changed formats to a religious children's format, changing tosouthern gospel in late 2005, with the religious children's format moving toWMDR-FM. In March 2007, AM 1340 once again flipped formats with its FM counterpart, inheriting thecontemporary Christian music format.
In 2009, the religious children's format was moved to an on demand section of their website and 1340 changed to a Christian-basedtalk radio station.
Sometime in early 2017, WMDR returned to airing a religious children's format, now branded as "The Arrow".
