History

The station signed on October 13, 1954 as WRPB, signifying Warner Robins, Perry and Byron. Other call letters included WAVC, WCOP and WNNG.

Prior to the current format, WRWR simulcasted WRWR-FM's news/talk format and had been WNNG, "Wing 1350", a satellite-fed adult standards station broadcasting ABC Radio's Timeless format (the station had used ABC's now-defunct "Unforgettable Favorites"/"Memories" network which was merged with "Timeless Classics" to create the current "Timeless Favorites", and before that, Westwood One's America's Best Music).

On February 19, 2015, WRWR changed its format from urban AC to black gospel, branded as "Praise 95.5" under new WYPZ calls.[1] The station changed its call sign on October 5, 2015 to the current WBML.

In mid-2017, WBML 1350 AM started simulcasting programming from 94.7 The Fox Classic Hits Network.
