WVAF's license was granted on December 24, 1963, but it did not signed on until February 1, 1965. V100 has broadcast the AC format for some time now, but was previously a rock station in 1977. It was also previously owned by Capital Broadcasting Corporation until it was sold to West Virginia Radio Corporation. In the mid-2000s, V100 played songs from the 70s such as Elton John & Kiki Dee's "Don't Go Breaking My Heart", Eagles' "Hotel California", Bee Gees "Stayin' Alive" and many more. By 2013, V100 dropped all 70's songs from their playlist and started to focus on more of a hot AC format without the hard rock or rap. It averages two or three songs from the 80s an hour, with mostly 90s, 2000s and current hits.
