History
In 1994, WWSN was a country music station called "The Hawk". Regent Communications moved the WHKW letters from 103.9 to the new station at 107.7. In 1996, the station became known as WSFR and aired a classic rock format.
On October 28, 2011, WSFR relaunched its classic rock format as "107.7 The Eagle", billing themselves as "Louisville Classic Hits".
On July 20, 2012, Cox Radio, Inc. announced the sale of WSFR and 22 other stations to SummitMedia LLC for $66.25 million. The sale was consummated on May 3, 2013.
On March 8, 2021, WSFR shifted their format from a classic hits/classic rock hybrid to classic rock, still under the "107.7 The Eagle" branding, but emphasizing the "Classic Rock" slogan.
On December 20, 2022, WSFR dropped the “Eagle” branding and rebranded as "Classic Rock 107.7".
