WCOA was purchased by [[John C. Pace]] in the early 1930s, and operations were moved to the top floor of the [[San Carlos Hotel]].
The station is currently owned by [[Cumulus Broadcasting]]. It switched to an all-talk format in [[1991]] and carries a number of nationally syndicated talk shows, including [[Wikipedia:Rush Limbaugh|Rush Limbaugh]], [[Wikipedia:Sean Hannity|Sean Hannity]] and [[Wikipedia:Michael Savage|Michael Savage]]. Its own call-in talk show, "[[Pensacola Speaks]]," was founded in [[1960]] and is one of the oldest in the nation. [[Luke McCoy]] was the host of this show and has been hosted since the early 1990s, but held his final program on by [[May 18]], [[2007Luke McCoy]].
As the designated [[Wikipedia:Emergency Alert System|Emergency Alert System]] radio station for the area, WCOA is equipped to operate even after a hurricane. [[Hurricane Erin|Hurricanes Erin]] and [[Hurricane Opal|Opal]] in [[1995]] first tested this capability.
