The station originally signed on as WHDL-FM in 1947 and in its early years was affiliated, like most upstate New York FMs of the time, with WQXR in New York City. James F. Hastings, later a U.S. Congressman, ran the station from 1952 to 1966. During the 1980s, the station aired what today's jockeys pejoratively referred to as an "elevator music" (likely something along the lines of middle-of-the-road, beautiful music or easy listening) format. On November 6, 1989, the station switched formats to the rapidly burgeoning country music format and became "WPIG-- The Big Pig 95.7, Today's Sizzlin' Country," which remains the station's motto. WPIG added the slogan "Today's Fun Country" in 2009, which rotates with the "Sizzlin' Country" format.
