2017 sale

[edit]

On February 14, 2017, it was announced that former owner Educational Media Foundation (EMF) would sell the then-WEKV as part of its purchase of WNKE (now WPYK) in neighboring New Boston, Ohio, which at the time the sale was announced operated as a repeater of WNKU, from Northern Kentucky University (NKU). As part of the WNKE sale agreement, NKU would receive $750,000 plus 75% of the net sale proceeds of WEKV.^[3]

The station changed its call sign to WGNH on August 10, 2017. On August 15, 2017, Somerset Educational Broadcasting Foundation of Somerset, Kentucky announced that they had purchased WGNH from Educational Media Foundation for $130,000. Under the terms of the sale of WNKE to Educational Media Foundation, Northern Kentucky University received $97,500 of the proceeds of the sale of WGNH. Immediately upon announcement of the sale, WGNH dropped Educational Media Foundation's K-Love brand (EMF having moved K-Love to the newly acquired WNKE, which was, at that time, temporarily identifying under its former WPAY-FM call sign) and began broadcasting under Somerset Educational Broadcasting Foundation's King of Kings Radio branding.^[4]
