History

[edit]

105.5 FM Tamaqua signed on the air in June 1965 as WSVB-FM from the "Dutch Hill" section of Tamaqua. The station was owned by Sky View Broadcasting.

In 1971, the license was transferred to Z Broadcasting, Inc. and the call letters were changed to WZTA-FM. Under this new ownership the station was fully automated and broadcast anEasy listening format.

An application was filed with theFederal Communications Commission in 1977 to transfer ownership of WZTA from Z Broadcasting Inc. to Curran Communications, owners ofWPAM inPottsville. The antenna was relocated to a mountain inTuscarora. Curran Communications kept the WZTA call letters until 1987 when it was changed to WCRN.

On February 28, 1987 WCRN was sold to East Penn Broadcasting. The station was renamed Magic 105.5 WMGH and began broadcasting anAdult contemporary format. In 1989 East Penn Broadcasting obtained ownership ofWLSH inLansford. The WMGH studio was relocated to the WLSH location later that year.

A license transfer was filed with the FCC on November 8, 2019 from J-Systems Franchising to CC Broadcasting, LLC. WLSH and WMGH began operation under new ownership on March 12, 2020. In June of that year both stations began to stream online 24/7. The format was changed to a rock and roll format, playing a mix of classic rock and new rock.
