On June 30, 2014, Cumulus Media Networks stopped distributing the network True Oldies Channel, and WAFC switched to Westwood One's Classic Hits Radio.

Previously, the station played a regional Mexican format with the branding Radio Fiesta.[2][3] Prior to that it played a country music format.

On December 26, 2018, WAFC changed their format from classic hits to classic country, branded as "Pure Country WAFC".[4]
