On September 6, 2018, Cumulus Media announced it would sell its Blacksburg cluster to Monticello Media; at the time of the sale, the station was WNMX "Mix 100.7", with a hot adult contemporary format.[5] The sale was approved December 1, 2018.[6] On January 20, 2019, the station's format was switched to contemporary hit radio and the branding to "Hot 100.7".

WVHK began simulcasting country music sister station WPSK-FM on June 3, 2024, under the WVXL call sign and branded as "WPSK XL".[7]
