WTQT-LP began broadcasting on 94.9 MHz in October 2003 from space in a studio on Government Street. Station equipment at the site fit inside the former vault of Pelican Savings and Loan. It aired gospel music, soul and R&B music and at launch had two on-air personalities, Guy Brody and A. B. Welch, both familiar in local radio. Welch had been the morning host at KQXL-FM for 17 years before being replaced with a syndicated show.[2] WTQT-LP moved to 3313 Government Street in 2009 and relaunched as a gospel-based station.[3]
In 2025, operation of the station came under the aegis of Southern University under an agreement with the Louisiana Community Development Capital Fund. The station changed call signs from WTQT-LP to WSUB-LP and became known as "The Bluff", airing a student-produced format of gospel, hip-hop, R&B and pop music.[4]
