Marinette-Menominee Station Flips to Rock

Posted on January 2, 2020 by Jon Ellis

WSFQ/96.3 (Peshtigo-Marinette-Menominee) has flipped to “The Rock,” dropping its previous “Hits 96.3” Adult Contemporary format.

The new format is positioned as “nobody plays Rock like we do.” The playlist on the station’s web stream shows a Classic Rock mix before 7 p.m. and Active Rock after 7.

The station posted about the change on Facebook on New Year’s Day:

WSFQ is part of the Radio Plus Bay Cities group, which also includes Classic Hits, Country, News/Talk, and Sports formats.
