Its studios are located at the Bayport One complex in West Atlantic City, and its transmitter is located in the Casino district in Atlantic City.
WTTH first signed on as WFOU in 1989. It first changed its callsign to WMXL in 1990 before becoming WTTH, branded as "The Touch," in 1991. As The Touch, WTTH plays an Urban AC format.
The Touch once operated a simulcast on 105.5 WBNJ in Cape May County from 1994 until 1999. The simulcast then moved to 93.1/WDTH until 2009, when WDTH became Easy 93.1.

Prior to December 2023, WTTH would air classic hip hop songs, in what it called "Throwback Weekend." Additionally, the station previously simulcasted the popular "Bob Pantano Saturday Night Dance Party" from Philadelphia's WOGL on Saturdays.
