[edit] History

WSEN-AM (250 w. 1050 KC) began operations on February 25, 1959 and was licensed by Century Radio Corp. Originally a current hits station it changed to Country in 1962 and was the first country station "north of the Mason-Dixon line." In 1967 sister station WSEN-FM began operations as a full-time country outlet, thus complimenting the AM. Century Radio sold the stations in 1974 and flipped to its current format in 1986.
