Licensed to serve Wattsburg, Pennsylvania, the station operates as an affiliate of Family Life Network, and primarily plays contemporary Christian music, with some Christian talk and teaching programs.

History[]

WCGM previously held the callsign WNAE-FM, aired a country music format, and was temporarily a simulcast of sister station WKNB.[2] At this time the station was licensed to Clarendon, Pennsylvania, United States, and was owned by Frank Iorio under his holding company Iorio Broadcasting, Inc. In 2010, WNAE-FM was sold to Family Life Ministries, with the intention of moving the station from Clarendon to Wattsburg.[3] The call sign was changed to WCGM on June 15, 2011,[4] swapping with a Family Life-owned construction permit in Belfast, New York;[5] the relocated WCGM relaunched as a Family Life Network station in October 2011.[6]
