Owned by Cary L. Graham and Edwin Estes, the Anniston Radio Company opened WANA in 1954, taking over the 1490-kHz 250-watt FCC assignment previously used by Anniston station WOOB. Within a short time, Graham gained full ownership. Joe A. Burney was an early employee of WANA, working his way up to become station manager. When Graham died, his will decreed that Bundy would receive the property. On August 4, 1987, the FCC approved the license to be transferred to Joe A. Burney and Ann H. Burney. In June 2000, Anniston Radio Company reached an agreement to sell this station to Dewey D. Lankford for a reported sale price of $175,000. At the time of the sale, WANA broadcast a Southern Gospel music format. The deal was approved by the FCC on July 10, 2000, and the transaction was consummated on July 17, 2000.

At the time of the sale, WANA broadcast a mixed Urban Christian Contemporary/Gospel music format. The deal was approved by the FCC on March 3, 2006, and the transaction was consummated on May 1, 2006. Under the new ownership, until May 2008 the station had been sports radio formatted WANA, known on-air as "Sports Radio 1490 The Ticket." In May 2008, the station announced it would change its call letters to WSYA and that by the end of May it would be broadcasting a Soft Adult Contemporary music format, simulcast on an FM translator in Anniston. The station was assigned the WSYA call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on May 23, 2008. WSYA began broadcasting on 104.3 FM and on 99.1 FM on April 20, 2009.
