WTSB was located at 580 AM, and broadcast at 500 watts during the day and 50 watts at night in 2000. The station signed on in 1947, owned by Robeson Broadcasting Corp. Jack Pait, who had a furniture business in Lumberton, was majority stockholder. Levi E. Willis Sr., president and owner of Willis Broadcasting of Norfolk, Virginia, bought WTSB in 1997 from Beasley Broadcast Group which had bought WTSB and WKML. Both stations aired country music for a year when they were co-owned, but WTSB ended up going off the air for a while. Willis played traditional black gospel until WTSB went off the air in 2000. Though Willis believed the station could return, it did not.
