at the start of each hour from Salem Radio Network. Although WAVO had a faithful listening audience, the station was unable to garner advertisers to support the format. In October 2018, WAVO returned to a WHVN simulcast. Even so, the station continued to air "The Sounds of Sinatra" with Sid Mark on Sundays from 2-4pm and "Jazzology" with George Buck from 4-5pm. Buck owned WAVO until his death in 2013. WHVN signed off March 31, 2020. The majority of WHVN's programming will air on WAVO. Some of the local programs from WCGC moved over to WAVO in 2019. These include "Daily Bread" and "Shining Light Baptist Church" on weekdays and "Power of Prayer", "The Bible Hour" and "Simply The Word" on weekends. On May 4, 2020, WHVN, Inc., filed an application with the FCC to assign the license for WAVO to Blue Ridge Broadcasting Corporation, the subsidiary of the Billy Graham Ministry that is the licensee for WMIT. The transfer was completed on July 15. Blue Ridge Broadcasting also bought translators W282BP in Charlotte and W268DM in Rock Hill. On July 15, 2020, WAVO began broadcasting WMIT. The addition of WAVO significantly improved WMIT's reach in Charlotte. The main WMIT signal has long had a significant listener base in the Charlotte area, particularly the western portion, to the point of including Charlotte in its legal IDs.
