WBLM 102.9 FM is a classic rock radio station servicing the southern Maine and southeastern New Hampshire listening areas from Portland, Maine.

It is a grandfathered Class C station, legally able to broadcast at 100,000 watts, more than any other FM station in Portland. (FCC rules do not allow new Class C licenses to be issued in Zone I, which Portland is in.)

In "City Slickers", Billy Crystal's character claimed to have been a sales executive for the fictional station "WBLM radio".
