History

After several years in the AOR & Top 40 formats, respectively, WKOR-FM would change to the popular Hot Country format. The station would also change its frequency from 92.1 to 94.9 and relocate its studios to downtown Columbus and be rebranded as K94.9 under the initial guidance of Rusty Walker Programming. Other on-air talent for K94.9 would include Jodi Roberts, Larry Bond, Dave Richards, Kelli Karlson, Mike Grace, Dalton Middleton, Joel Sargent, Kevin Burchfield, Bill Thurlow, Nikki Steele, and Scotty D.

On February 3, 2014 WKOR-FM along with 9 other Cumulus owned country music stations, made the switch to going under the Nash FM branding.
