On January 3, 2014, WSDV and its simulcast sister station WDDV (1320 AM) rebranded themselves as "Sunny" and diverted from adult standards to an Oldies/Soft AC format.[1]
On March 17, 2016, WSDV and WDDV switched to a news/talk format.[2]
On November 1, 2017, WSDV split from its simulcast with WDDV and began stunting with Christmas music. On January 1, 2018, the station became 103.9 Kiss FM with a Top 40/CHR format, not the original hot adult contemporary format as first reported.[3]
