History
[edit]On May 25, 2018, WMPA changed their format from country to classic rock, branded as "Classic Rock 93.1". Programming included the "Classic Rock Cafe" weekdays from Noon to 1 and "In The Basement With Jesse Bruce" weekdays 3 to 7pm. WMPA also carried "Nights With Alice Cooper," "Flashback" and "In Concert.".[3] In March 2022, it was indicated that Strong Tower Radio would be providing the programming going forward; this transition finalized on June 10, 2022.[4]
On November 21, 2022, WMPA went silent due to it being evicted from its tower site by the city of Grand Haven.[5]
