The second FM station in West Virginia was WJLS-FM, which has claimed a start date of November 15, 1946. Regular broadcasting, however, apparently actually began in early 1947. WJLS-FM is the oldest surviving FM station in West Virginia, if we ignore the fact that the station suspended broadcasting for a time in the 1950s.
The next four FM stations began in 1947. The order is uncertain, but they were WHTN-FM (July), WWVA-FM (September), WHIS-FM (date unknown), and WPLH-FM (in Huntington, date unknown).
