W47NV - Definition and Overview

WSM-FM is a Nashville, Tennessee FM radio station. They began on an experimental license with callsign W47NV, and were the first commercial FM radio station to be granted an FCC license in the U.S.

This initial license was later divested; the current FM station dates only from the 1960s and its country format only from the 1980s. It is now owned by Cumulus Broadcasting, which also leases (but does not as of 2004 own) the AM station as well.
