Logo used by WRIC-FM until April 2009.

WRIC-FM was originally on 100.7 FM, but switched frequencies with sister station WMJD in Grundy, Virginia in 2005.

The WRIC calls were originally parked at AM 540 in Richlands, now WGTH-AM.

In April 2009, WRIC-FM began simulcasting WSTG, located out of Princeton, West Virginia, which carries a Hot Adult Contemporary format. Around the same time, WRIC-FM's ownership changed from Peggy Sue Broadcasting Corporation to RR & WT Broadcasting, Inc.

WRIC is not related to WRIC-TV in Richmond.
