The station started as WWMO in Eden, North Carolina with a Southern gospel and preaching format. In the mid-90s the callsign was changed to WETR and the station moved to the old Color Tile building on High Point Road in Greensboro, North Carolina. WETR offered a mix of "entertainment radio" programming that included talk radio such as The Fabulous Sports Babe and Dr. Laura, and beach music.

New towers were built outside Walkertown, North Carolina to improve coverage of the entire Greensboro-High Point-Winston Salem market. By this time, Hearst-Argyle Television, owner of area NBC affiliate WXII-TV, bought the station and named it WXII-AM, and a news radio format was used that included audio from some WXII-TV news broadcasts.Truth Broadcasting bought the station in June 2000 and, after a few weeks of silence, returned it to the air with the current format and call letters.From 1956 til 1992 the WTRU calls were assigned to the now silenced AM 1600 in Muskegon Heights, Michigan.
