The original construction permit was issued to Craig Fox himself in June 1988, with a major modification filing the year after, and the first broadcast commenced in May 1991. The then-WOBX-LP was affiliated with The Box and then MTV2 after The Box ceased operations in 2001. WOBX-LP acquired the Univision affiliation as a Syracuse translator (relay) station for WNYI channel 52 in Ithaca until WNYI was bought by a religious broadcaster and subsequently dropped the Univision network. The station then turned into a AMGTV affiliate for the Syracuse market.[ when? ][ citation needed ] As of 2024, the station is now an LATV affiliate.
