History

WAUH was built by the local Boyson family in Wautoma early in the year 2000. [4] The station was originally operated under a low-power license until approximately mid-2001, when it increased its power to its current 5,300 watts. It was locally owned and operated by Hometown Broadcasting for many years. [5] WAUH previously simulcast its programming with AM sister station WISS (1100 AM) in Berlin, Wisconsin, as part of the "Classic Hits" format. This simulcast arrangement ended when WISS was acquired by Civic Media in 2022 and that station subsequently switched to a progressive news/talk format. WAUH was sold to Civic Media in April 2025. [6]

Civic Media stated its intent to retain the station's existing team and integrate local reporting into its statewide news operation. [7]
