Programming

WANV airs a broad Oldies format, bordering close to the classic hits genre. The station's music catalog stretches from the 1960s up to the early 2000s. WANV airs one locally-based on-air program, The Morning Show, hosted by Dave Begley.[3]

Since it's beginning, the station aired Dial Global's "Kool Gold" format, which later became Westwood One's Classic Hits, after the companies merged. In 2022, the station dropped programming from Westwood One, in favor of "Classic Hits 2" from Local Radio Networks, which is a rock-leaning classic hits program.

History

The station went on the air as WANK on May 1, 2006. On May 3, 2006, the station changed its call sign to the current WANV.[4]
