History

Originally, this station was WWMC, licensed to Moncks Corner, South Carolina and broadcasting at 3,000 watts.
In the late 1990s, WNST "New Star" played hot adult contemporary music.
In December 1998, WCOO switched from adult contemporary to rhythmic oldies, becoming "Cool 105.3". Soon, WCOO made big ratings gains at the expense of WXLY. WXLY recovered but WCOO continued to improve.
In January 2004, WCOO changed to its current format.
