WEUS History

The Big 810 WEUS signed on January 21, 2006 and is airing Scott Shannon's True Oldies format which has a variety 
of music from the 1950's thru the early 1970's. To provide a better signal, they installed four radio towers on a parcel near Princeton Street and Mercy Drive. In addition, they got approval to raise the station's output from 1,000 watts to a daytime power of 100,000 watts, creating a signal that reaches into Brevard, Osceola and Volusia counties. They plan to hire local
on-air talent, after slowly establishing a presence with Shannon's patter and music from New York. They leased offices in downtown Orlando in the Lou Pearlman's Transcontinental Building near Church Street with plans to locate there.

They have invested "several million dollars" in the best equipment, says Carl Tutera. That includes broadcasting in HD Radio, a new technology that provides comparable quality on AM and FM. Receivers are available, at a much higher price than regular radio. The new equipment, in addition to providing clearer signals, is interactive. It can text-broadcast song titles and artists' information and allows a listener to ask for more information. 

2007-WEUS moves into new studios at  999 Douglas Ave., Altamonte Springs, in the IDC building.
2008-WEUS drops the true oldies format in favor of a religious format
6-08-2008 Communicom (Richard Kylberg) takes over WEUS-AM 810 via a Lease Management Agreement -with-purchase option from owner/operator Carl Como Tutera and his son Carmine, of Star Development Group.
