WDSC (800 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a sports format. Licensed to Dillon, South Carolina, USA, the station is currently owned by iHeartMedia, Inc., through licensee AMFM Radio Licenses, L.L.C.[1]

History

In 1993, WDSC had a sports talk format when it went off the air.[2]

As of 1997, WDSC was owned by Root Communications, Ltd.[3] Qantum Communications Inc. purchased Florence's Root Communications Group LP stations in 2003.[4]

The station was simulcast on WWRK.[5]

On April 11, 2013 WDSC changed their format from gospel to sports, with programming from NBC Sports Radio.

On May 15, 2014, Qantum Communications announced that it would sell its 29 stations, including WDSC, to Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia) for WALK AM-FM in Patchogue, New York as part of the sale of the WALK stations to Connoisseur Media.[6] The transaction was consummated on September 9, 2014.
