History

The station first signed on as WSCM on September 23, 1958, its callsign standing for "We Serve Country Music". Like WPAP would almost a decade later, they broadcast live sermons every Sunday.
The station was assigned the callsign WPCF on April 1, 1979, after the original WPCF left the 1430 spot. On June 6, 1994, the station changed its call sign to WDLP then again on March 10, 2000 to the current WPCF.
On January 6, 2014, WPCF dropped its Trop-Rock format for all Dance and Electronic music, becoming "93.9 PLAY-FM" which is now on 93.1 as of March 1, 2018 under the operations of Patrick Pfeffer, owner of Club La Vela, a dance club in Panama City Beach that bills itself as "the largest nightclub in the USA".
