01History
The station signed on in August 1962, with the callsign WNDU-FM; it was owned by the University of Notre Dame (from which the call sign was derived), along with WNDU (1490 AM) and WNDU-TV (channel 16). In its early years, WNDU-FM simulcast the programming of its AM counterpart. On July 16, 1971, the station switched to the Drake-Chenault "Hit Parade" format.
The station switched to its current Top 40/CHR format on October 22, 1979, and received its "U93" branding. Throughout the 1980s, the station dominated the Arbitron ratings in the market. Despite having a short CHR battle against WZZP at the time, U93 was South Bend's dominant CHR leader. The station changed its callsign to WNDV-FM, when it was sold by the university on November 23, 1998, to Artistic Media Partners.
