History

In early 2005, WBTQ and sister station WELK-FM in Elkins made a format swap. Since the station's beginning, WBTQ was an Oldies station called B-93, and WELK 94.7 was a Hot AC station called K-95 FM. For a while after the switch, WELK was an Oldies station, but in early 2006 WELK dropped Oldies to an Adult Hits station called SAM 94.7, but however due to a decrease in ratings, WELK switched back to an Oldies station in mid-2006. Adult Hits could be found at 93.1 in Barrackville formerly known as SAM 93.1, until April 30, 2007.

In March of 2014, WBTQ began simulcasting sister station WAJR-FM.
