History
The station began broadcasting in 1971 under the WMIC-FM call sign, simulcasting WMIC-AM 1560. WMIC-FM separated programming in 1977, switching to a beautiful music format, and adopted the WTGV call sign two years later. The beautiful music format was updated to a MOR music mix over the years, and then to mainstream adult contemporary by 2000 until the station changed formats in 2017.
