The station signed on the air in January 28, 1977; 47 years ago (1977-01-28).[3] The call sign was WHHL and it aired an oldies format. It was powered at 1,000 watts and was a daytimer, required to go off the air at night. The studios were on Orange Blossom Trail in Orlando.
At January 21, 2010, at 11:37 pm local time, its website address redirected all visitors to the website of then-sister stationWHOO1080 AM, which carried a sports radio format. In December 2011, ESPN Deportes Radio signed off from the station, and the station stunted for about a month, playing canned music and replays of old speeches.
Genesis Communications announced that it would sell WAMT and WHOO to Relevant Radio, a Catholicradio network based in Wisconsin. The sale was completed August 14, 2018. In late 2018-early 2019, both WAMT and WHOO switched from their former formats to Catholic talk, branded as “Relevant Radio”.
In 2021, Relevant Radio swapped WAMT to Family Radio's parent company, Family Stations, in exchange for WBMD in Baltimore, Maryland. The swap, which left WHOO as Relevant Radio's only Orlando station, allowed that network to enter Baltimore (where Family Radio also owned WFSI). At the same time, Family Radio was able to enter the Orlando market.[4]
