W291CL is a Contemporary Hit Radio formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Richmond, Virginia, serving Metro Richmond.^[1] W291CL is owned by Edgewater Broadcasting and operated by SummitMedia LLC.^[2]

History

The FCC authorized W291CL in April 2013. The station signed on in May 2014 relaying WHTI's "Hot 100.9" programming for several days, before the slogan changed to reflect the new dial position at 106.1 MHz as "Hot 106.1".

The station is operated by SummitMedia under an LMA with Edgewater Broadcasting. The license was transferred by owner Clark Parrish from his Radio Assist Ministry holding company to his Edgewater Broadcasting holding company on January 2, 2015 as part of a 69-station transfer.^[3]

As a translator is not permitted to originate its own programming, by Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulation, W291CL is relaying the HD2 subchannel of WURV 103.7 FM.
