[edit] History
AM 1450 was originally WTIX with a Classical format until the 1950s when it flipped to Top 40. By 1958 it moved to 690 and donated the 1450 signal to the city of New Orleans and bcame WNPS.
In the 1970s it returned to commercial status and became a Country outlet. By the late 1970s it switched to Adult Standards as WWIW (In 1988 they picked up the call letters of the former WBYU-FM to replace WWIW).
But by 2001 the Adult Standards format was not profitable and it was replaced by a brokered health talk format until 2003 when ABC bought the station and flipped it to its current format.
