WAMT switched to Spanish-language sports at the beginning of 2010. Previously, it featured programming from the CBS Radio Network, Fox News Radio, and Westwood One.
At January 21, 2010 at 11:37 pm local time, its website address redirected all visitors to the website of sister station, WHOO, which carried a sports format, but it is now a parked page. In December 2011, ESPN Deportes signed off from the station, and the station stunted for about a month, playing canned music and replays of old speeches.
Genesis Communications announced that it would sell WAMT and its sister station WHOO to Relevant Radio. The sale was completed sometime in August 2018.
In late 2018-early 2019, both WAMT and sister station WHOO switched from their former formats to Catholic talk, branded as “Relevant Radio”.
