WRLF (94.3 FM, "The Torch") is a conservative talk formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Fairmont, West Virginia, serving the North-Central West Virginia area. WRLF is owned and operated by Laurel Highland Total Communications, Inc., through licensee LHTC Media of West Virginia, Inc.[3]

History

On August 17, 2020, WRLF changed their format from mainstream rock to a simulcast of sports-formatted WMMN (920 AM), branded as "The Ticket".[4] In late June 2021, WRLF dropped the WMMN simulcast and returned to mainstream rock, under the same "94 Rock" branding as had been used prior to the simulcast.[5]

On January 6, 2025, WRLF ended the mainstream rock format and returned to simulcasting WMMN, now a conservative talk station branded as "The Torch".[6]
