History
WKXB launched as WPGF-FM, sister station to 1470/WPGF. It adopted an adult contemporary format as WVBS-FM in the early 1980s. WVBS-FM would flip to a Top 40/CHR format in the mid-late 1980s named "All Hit B100". In 1993, WVBS-FM became Country-formatted "Kix Country 99.9" with new calls WKXB. In 1999, WKXB again switched formats to Jammin' Oldies as "Jammin 99.9". WKXB more than doubled its audience and became the number one station in the market.

In 2001, WKXB shifted to a more Rhythmic Adult Contemporary format. As of 2012, it has returned to Rhythmic Oldies, predominantly from the 1960s thru 1980s.

In July 2004, NextMedia Group purchased WKXB and WSFM from Sea-Comm Inc., and WRQR, WAZO, and WMFD from Ocean Broadcasting LLC.

In July 2008, Capitol Broadcasting announced its purchase of NextMedia's Wilmington stations.

On March 31, 2010, WKXB reduced its power output from 100,000 watts to 35,000 watts in a transmitter and city of license move from Burgaw, North Carolina to Boiling Spring Lakes, North Carolina to allow a signal boost by co-owned and co-channeled WCMC-FM in the Raleigh market.
