WUGN (99.7FM) is anon-commercialChristianradio station inMidland, Michigan. The station broadcasts with 100,000watts from a 997-foot tower, giving it a strong signal throughout the middle of the mitten of Michigan from Houghton Lake southward to Lansing and Flint. Under the right conditions, the station can be heard south toAnn Arbor and almost as far south as the Ohio and Indiana state lines, in most of theGrand Rapids metropolitan area, northward into Michigan's Upper Peninsula, and even as far away asPort Clinton, Ohio.
The station began broadcasting under its current ownership in 1973 as the third station owned and operated by Family Life Communications (commonly referred to as FLR orFamily Life Radio). WUGN plays a contemporary mix of Christian music. WUGN's local morning show isPeter Brooks and the Morning team, a family-friendly breakfast program.
In 1999, WUGN won the Marconi Christian station of the year.
The 99.7 frequency previously broadcast from 1961 to 1970 asWQDC, which was Midland's first FM station. WQDC's studios were on Main Street in downtown Midland. In 1970, WQDC was sold toSaginaw Valley State University (then known as Saginaw Valley College), who gave the station the callsWSVC and changed the station's city of license toAuburn. In late 1972, SVC sold the station to Family Life Radio, who took over operations in 1973 after changing the city of license back to Midland and relocating the transmitter to its current site near Shepherd. WUGN operates on the original WQDC license to this day.
