In late 1981, the license was sold to Lee Hague for $125,000. The following year the station was brought back on the air from a new site in the same area, with the WEAW callsign revived. The station aired adult contemporary music and religious programming. By the mid-1980s the station was airing Christian talk and teaching programs and uptempo Christian contemporary music, with a certain amount of secular adult contemporary mixed in. Christian talk and teaching programs heard on WEAW included "The Old-Time Gospel Hour" with Jerry Falwell, "Family Altar" with Lester Roloff, and "Insight for Living" with Chuck Swindoll.
