History


The station went on the air as WRFB on February 28, 1976, and became WVMX on October 28, 1990. On July 2, 1997, the station changed its call sign to the current WCVT. When the station's call sign changed, its format did as well, and it began airing classical music.
In June 2014, Radio Vermont announced that WCVT would drop the classical format in July, citing the growth of the noncommercial VPR Classical network. The station launched a full service classic hits music format branded as "101 The One" on July 1; ahead of the launch, the new format was described by owner Ken Squier as "a new adult service local to Vermont". On September 28, 2020, the station re-branded as "101.7 WCVT Classic Hits Vermont", while retaining a deep-library classic hits format.
The staff includes long-time Vermont broadcaster Zeb Norris as Program Director and morning host, and Nanci Gordon in afternoons. Notable programs include "The Beatles Break" weekdays at 10am and 4pm, "The Stones Set" Saturday nights at 6pm, and "The Superstar Spotlight" weekdays at 6pm.
