WVLE (99.3 FM, "99.3 Love FM") is a radio station licensed to serve Scottsville, Kentucky. The station is owned by Skytower Communications Group, LLC. It airs a soft adult contemporary music format.[4]
History
[edit]The station began broadcasting as WLCK-FM, an FM companion of WLCK, Scottsville's first radio station. The station simulcasted WLCK's programming full time until 1986, when it became a Country music station.[1]: 145
The station was assigned these call letters by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on April 28, 1986,[2] per the request made by Danny Tabor, which owned the station with Joe Hite at that time.[1]: 145
The station would later switch to its current soft adult contemporary format at some time in the 2000s.
