WULF (94.3 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a country music format. Licensed to Hardinsburg, Kentucky, United States, the station is currently owned by Skytower Communications - 94.3, LLC and features programming from Premiere Radio Networks and Westwood One.[2]
History
The station went on the air as WHIC-FM on March 23, 1979.[3] Under ownership by Breckinridge County Broadcasting, it was an FM companion for variety-formatted WHIC (AM 1520), which had been on the air since 1968. In 1982, both WHIC AM and FM were acquired by Key Broadcasting, presided by Terry Forcht.[4]
Both WHIC AM and FM were simulcasting a country music format by 1994.[4] On May 24, 1995, the station changed its call sign to the current WULF.[3]
