History Edit

In 1993, WDSC had a sports talk format when it went off the air.[2]

As of 1997, WDSC was owned by Root Communications, Ltd.[3] Qantum Communications Inc. purchased Florence's Root Communications Group LP stations in 2003.[4]

The station was simulcast on WWRK.[5]

On April 11, 2013 WDSC changed their format from gospel to sports, with programming from NBC Sports Radio.

On May 15, 2014, Qantum Communications announced that it would sell its 29 stations, including WDSC, to Clear Channel Communications (now iHeartMedia), in a transaction connected to Clear Channel's sale of WALK AM-FM in Patchogue, New York to Connoisseur Media via Qantum.[6] The transaction was consummated on September 9, 2014.
