WBHB-FM is owned and operated by M. Belmont Verstandig, Inc.
History
Beginning in the late 1970s, then WAYZ 101.5 FM was a country-formatted station.
VerStandig bought FM 104.7 from John Staub (Hagerstown Broadcasting) and moved the WAYZ country format there in 2000, leaving it with FM 101.5; it broadcast an audio CNN headline news format for three weeks.
Top 40 "Magic 101.5" debuted on August 28, 2000, and operated until March 2005.
On March 1, 2005, 101.5 was re-branded Eagle 101.5; it broadcast a classic rock format. Nassau Broadcasting-owned WARX changed to a classic hits format as WWEG 106.9 The Eagle the same week. Nassau sued Verstandig for the use of the "Eagle" moniker, even though Verstandig used it first, and 101.5 was re-branded Classic Rock 101.5 and its call sign to WFYN.
On September 17, 2007, WFYN segued from classic rock to active rock as Rock 101.5.
On March 16, 2009, WFYN became WBHB-FM and changed its Rock 101.5 branding to 101.5 Bob Rocks; it continues to broadcast an active rock format.
