[edit] History

The 106.3 frequency was WCCA, a beach music station and then a classic country station[3]before taking over the call letters and talk format previously heard on what is now 103.7 WBNE.[4] In 2004, WWTB, an adult standards station at 103.9 FM which was licensed to Topsail Beach, North Carolina, began airing the same programming as WLTT.[5]This simulcast ended when the WBNE 93.7 frequency took the role, moving to Topsail Beach and changing its letters to WNTB.
