On October 14, 2021, at 15:30, it began operating under a local marketing agreement with Radio Loudon LLC. Radio Loudon LLC then became the licensee on March 22, 2022. WLOD began airing Scott Shannon's True Oldies Channel on April 1, 2022 at midnight.
The station first signed on the air on January 1, 1983, as WLNT. [1] Because AM 1140 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A stations WRVA in Richmond and XEMR in Monterrey, Mexico, WLOD must sign-off at sunset to avoid interfering with those stations. On July 27, 2020, WLOD added FM translator W284DC at 104.7 MHz.
