The WKSG call letters were previously used by Detroit-area FM 102.7, now WDKL.
On September 25, 2017, it was announced that WKSG was sold by Daystar to Community Communications. The deal gave access to WMFE's signal in an underserved area of Central Florida, including portions of Lake and Marion counties.
The station changed its call sign to WMFV on January 4, 2018. The sale closed on January 5, 2018.
On Saturday, March 3, 2018, the station soft-launched under CCI management, carrying WMFE's locally originated programming and NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered, with automated classical music from Classical 24 outside of that time.
In early September 2019, the station dropped the classical music portion of its format, along with some local programming, replacing it with additional news/talk programming from WMFE-FM and other public radio sources.
