History
The station was formerly WXMR at 100.7 MHz, with a tagline called "Radio Bistro". The call sign was changed to WPLB on August 6, 2012; it eventually changed to a country music format, "Kickin' Country," which was simulcast with WNMR and competed with WOKO and WTNN.In March 2016, WXMR was leased to WIRY. The arrangement allowed for the FM station to occasionally broadcast separate programming from the AM station. The call sign was changed to WIRY-FM on March 15, 2016.
WIRY-FM went silent on January 7, 2020, after WIRY changed ownership the previous month and the new owners ended WIRY-FM's agreement to operate it. An application was filed to move the frequency from Plattsburgh West to Ray Brook, New York. The station changed its call sign to WPLA on July 10, 2020.
In late January 2021, WPLA moved from Plattsburgh West, New York to Ray Brook, New York. WPLA picked up the WSLP call sign on January 29, 2021, as well as the "Lake FM" variety hits format from 93.3 FM Saranac Lake, which picked up the WPLA call sign. That June, Benjamin Homel, who owned the station through Radioactive, LLC, filed to sell the station to operator North Country Radio Corp. The sale, at a price of $45,000, was consummated on October 18, 2021.
On May 2, 2023, the station began broadcasting on 93.3 FM. The Federal Communications Commission licensed the station for operation on 93.3 FM on May 17, 2023.
