On September 6, 2018, Cumulus Media announced it would sell its Blacksburg cluster to Monticello Media; at the time of the sale, the station was WNMX "Mix 100.7", with a hot adult contemporary format. The sale was approved December 1, 2018. On January 20, 2019, the station's format was switched to contemporary hit radio and the branding to "Hot 100.7".

WVHK began simulcasting country music sister station WPSK-FM on June 3, 2024, under the WVXL call sign and branded as "WPSK XL".
