Brief history

It was founded as WMWM on December 5, 1964. It became WKFI sometime in the mid-1970s. Several formats over the years included middle of the road, country music with farm news and later southern gospel. WKFI also had an FM beginning in 1968 as WKIT at 102.3 mHz operating at first as a simulcast then briefly adopting the WKFI calls until the early 1970s when the callsign changed to WDHK with an adult contemporary format. That format remained throughout the 1970s and 1980s when the callsign was once again switched to WSWO-FM in 1982 and switched to new country in 1997. It became classic country in 2003 as a brief AM/FM simulcast of WBZI until WSWO-FM was sold to EMF Broadcasting becoming WKLN, the southwest Ohio repeater of K-LOVE.
The WSWO callsign is now used at a low-power FM station in Huber Heights, Ohio.
On March 23, 2018, WKFI rebranded as "Real Roots Radio".
WKFI retains the simulcast of WBZI to this day.
