Sale

[edit]

On February 13, 2009, Harry Allman (Administrator) (under the company name Allman Electronics Lab) sold WOTR for $75,000 to Stephen Peters, owner of nearby WHAW. The reason for the sale was the death of owner James Allman.[2] During this period, the station was silent.

On May 15, 2009, WOTR relaunched with programming from the Inspirational Country Radio Network, carrying a Southern Gospel and Positive Country format mixed with Bluegrass.[3] WOTR is the network's first affiliate.[4]
