History

WCCR debuted in 1985 under the moniker C-93, with a Top 40 format.

The construction permit to build the station was issued on February 14, 1983, with the call letters WMQP first assigned on September 4, 1984. The station never used these call letters, taking its current call sign less than a month later.

Throughout the years, the station's formats fluctuated between Top 40 and Classic Rock, but the station programs a format of Hot Adult Contemporary today.

WCCR is the voice of Clarion University Golden Eagles Sports.
