History
On September 6, 2014, Jenn Media, Inc., completed the sale of WQLA to Michael and Sue Beverly's Beverly Broadcasting Co., LLC.
Effective May 5, 2016, Beverly Broadcasting sold WQLA to Ron Meredith’s Clinton Broadcasters, Inc. Coincidentally, WQLA changed their format from classic hits to classic country, simulcasting WYSH 1380 AM Clinton, TN.
Meredith has grown the station to be a favorite in the Campbell County area of East Tennessee.
On May 1, 2022, WQLA dropped its simulcast with WYSH and changed their format from classic country to classic rock, branded as "95.9 Rocks".[https://radioinsight.com/headlines/224834/wqla-flips-to-classic-rock/ WQLA Flips To Classic Rock] Radioinsight - May 1, 2022
