History

970 WATH first hit the airwaves in Athens, Ohio, on October 25, 1950. In late 2022, it switched FM translator frequencies from 97.1 FM to 97.3 FM. On October 30, 2023, WATH changed their format from classic hits to adult contemporary, branded as "Mix 97.3". Later, in January 2025, WATH would once again change their format from adult contemporary to sports talk, and was rebranded as "97.3 WATH, The Game".
