What is "whiy"

WHIY (1600 AM) is an Urban oldies and Blues music formatted radio station that serves Huntsville, Alabama, and the majority of the Tennessee Valley in north Alabama, United States. The station's studios and transmitter are both co-located along Jordan Lane ( U.S. Highway 231) in Northwest Huntsville.

The WHIY call letters were on the co-owned 1190 AM signal until a 2006 re-alignment with co-owned WEUV (originally 1700 AM) and WEUP (originally 1600 AM).

In the 1980s, the station aired a country music format. For most of the 2000s, this station's programming had been a simulcast of sister station WEUP. WHIY returned to independent programming in December 2007.
