- WMIC (660 AM) (W237EQ 95.3 FM) is a news/talk and country radio station licensed to Sandusky, Michigan. WMIC signed on the air at 1560 kHz on June 27, 1968, and changed its frequency to the current 660 in 1987, serving Sandusky, the Thumb and the Blue Water area of Michigan. Part of WMIC 660's success is mostly due to the large area the station covers. WMIC covers the complete Thumb area of Michigan, unlike any other area station. Also, WMIC can be heard from both sides of Lake Huron, Standish and Oscoda to the west, and London, Ontario to the east. On clear weather days, the station can be heard as far away as Roscommon, Ann Arbor, and Lansing. WMIC has two co-owned FM sister stations, Classic Hits 97.7 WTGV-FM, and Country 92.5 WBGV; the stations are locally owned and operated by Sanilac Broadcasting. WMIC carries 1,000 watts operating during the day only. The station signs off between sunset and sunrise to protect WFAN New York, a 50,000 watt clear channel radio station. In the late evenings and early mornings, they interfere with each other. In 2021, Sanilac Broadcasting added FM Translator W237EQ 95.3 FM. The addition of this translator allows WMIC to have 24-hour programming for the first time. 95.3 FM is not affected by WFAN New York, and Federal Communications Commission rules allow FM Translators to continue to broadcast, even if their parent station is of daytime only status.
