01History
In 1989, Henry Hinton started New East Communications of Greenville, North Carolina. The company's stations were WGPM 94.3, WCZI and WKQT. WKQT was sold in 1996. In 2003, Archway Broadcasting Group, LLC, bought WGPM and WCZI and announced its acquisition of four Greenville market stations--WRHT, WCBZ, WNBR and WZBR, from Eastern North Carolina Broadcasting Company, Inc for $6.5 Million.
This station was once called WRQR. Later, with the letters WWGL, together with WWEA (formerly WNBR), this was a country music station as "Eagle 94". Then WWEA became WWHA and WWGL became WWNK. The stations were "Hank FM". Inner Banks Media LLC Bought WWHA and WWNK as part of a cluster of stations from Archway for $4.5 million in March 2007. WWHA and WWNK were hot adult contemporary for a short time before switching to new letters and separate formats. WTIB moved to 103.7 FM on March 15, 2010, with WRHD taking the 94.3 frequency.
On August 11, 2014, WRHD flipped to sports talk as 94.3 The Game.
