WCEG (100.3 FM) is an American radio station broadcasting a Christian radio format. Licensed to Delhi, New York, United States, the station is owned by Family Life Ministries.[2] The station simulcasts with WCEB (94.7 FM) in Deposit, New York.

History

Delaware County Broadcasting, owner of WDLA and WDLA-FM in Walton, New York, was granted a construction permit for a new station on 100.3 in Delhi on March 13, 1990.[3] The station, which took the call sign WDHI,[4] signed on with a soft adult contemporary format[5] on March 16, 1992.[6]

Delaware County Broadcasting sold its stations—WDHI, the WDLA stations, and WIYN in Deposit—to BanJo Communications, owner of stations in nearby Norwich and Oneonta, for $865,000 in 2000.[7] In January 2001, BanJo began simulcasting an oldies format on WDHI and WIYN.[8] BanJo sold its stations to Double O Radio for $9.75 million in 2004.[9]

Double O sold 26 radio stations, including WDHI and WIYN, to Townsquare Media in 2011.[10] In early 2019, Townsquare closed the stations' studios in Walton, which were shared with the WDLA stations and WTBD-FM; operations were moved to the company's Oneonta facility.[11] In September 2022, WDHI and WIYN shifted their format from classic hits to classic rock as "100.3 & 94.7 The Eagle".[12]

On December 31, 2023, WDHI and WIYN ceased operations.[13] In May 2024, Townsquare Media sold the stations, along with WTBD-FM (which had shut down at the same time) to the Family Life Network.[14] WDHI returned to the air October 8, 2024,[15] and changed its call sign to WCEG on December 6.[16]
