History

WVEK went on the air as WSEH on July 26, 1991 and was owned by Cumberland City Broadcasting.

On May 26, 2005, WSEH switched its calls to WVEK-FM and its format to classic rock. Five days later on May 31, 2005, the station was sold to Regina Kay Moore, who owned nearby WJNV.

On June 27, 2008, Moore began the process to sell WVEK-FM to Holston Valley Broadcasting Corporation of Kingsport, Tennessee. The sale of the station would be "consummated" on July 16, 2008.

On July 28, 2008, WVEK-FM fell silent ahead of its move to Weber City, Virginia. WVEK-FM returned to the air on August 21, 2008 with classic hits.

gollark: Quite a lot of the time if someone *tells* you "you are stupid, I am much better at this" they're just being a triskaidecagon.
gollark: Also, half of it gets reworked every version.
gollark: They tend to use crazily outdated OpenGL stuff, invented NBT instead of using an actual standard like, say, CBOR, and massively inefficient programming (it allocates hundreds of megabytes of RAM a second apparently).
gollark: Minecraft is just so bizarrely designed from a technical perspective.
gollark: Except disk space, where it's mostly outclassed by newer, even worse-designed games.
