WAYG
WCXG 89.9 FM radio, formerly WAYG, is a radio station in Grand Rapids, Michigan, broadcasting an adult Contemporary Christian music format as a simulcast of sister station 91.3 WCSG. Until November 29, 2013, the station broadcast a Christian CHR/Top 40 format as "WaY FM." WCXG's programming is repeated on WCXK 88.3 FM in Kalamazoo,and WCXB 89.9 FM in Benton Harbor. These stations are owned and operated by Cornerstone University, which also owns and runs WCSG, Mission Network News, and His Kids Radio. WaYFM targeted teens, young adults, and young families with modern music wrapped in a Christian worldview. Popular artists played on the station included Switchfoot, The Fray, Relient K, GRITS, Hawk Nelson, tobyMac, BarlowGirl, Daughtry, Casting Crowns, Family Force 5, Stacie Orrico, Skillet, and other various hip hop, pop, rock, and punk acts. WaYfm is not to be confused with WAY-FM Network, the nationally syndicated Christian CHR network. Ironically, WaYfm's competitor station in the Grand Rapids market, the commercial WJQK 99.3 FM, previously aired some programming from the national WAY-FM network, notably the afternoon drive show "Total Axxess."
