History
On December 30, 1960, Jerry Tucker of WNOO interviewed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. just before the Civil Rights leader gave a speech at Chattanooga's Memorial Auditorium.[1]
On January 1, 2006, WTUN started simulcasting with WNOO after its classic country format was moved to WNGA. After a few months of simulcasting with WNOO, WTUN 101.9 then changed their calls to WOCE and is now a Spanish language broadcaster.
