From its beginning in 2009 to 2021 WYPJ was licensed to Due West, South Carolina, serving the Anderson, South Carolina area with a format of Today's R&B music and Urban Oldies.
On May 31, 2020, WYPJ was sold by RFPJY, LLC to Lake Hartwell Radio, LLC, and went off the air.[2][3] The sale of the station was consummated on January 19, 2021, and the call sign was changed from WYPJ to WEGG on January 21, 2021.
Following the sale to Lake Hartwell Radio the station's community of license was moved to Bowman, Georgia on May 25, 2021, and then to Royston, Georgia on February 20, 2026. The move from Bowman to Royston made no changes to the station's licensed facility or tower location, but resulted in a priority 4 allotment improvement by providing a 2nd local and first full-time service to the substantially larger community of Royston.
On August 3, 2022, WEGG launched an oldies format branded as "95.3 WEGG Good Time Oldies", carrying programming from Westwood One's Good Time Oldies network.
On April 17, 2025, after having received word that Westwood One would discontinue the Good Time Oldies format, WEGG took the oldies format in-house.
WEGG also carries three specialty shows
Street Corner Symphony with host Stompin' Zemo (Doo Wop Music) - Saturdays from 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m.
Pat Gwinn At The Beach with host Pat Gwinn (Carolina Beach Music) -Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m.
