WIMS is an AM Station broadcasting on 1420 kHz in Michigan City, Indiana, and serves the northwest Indiana listening area. Its format is primarily news, talk and sports.
WIMS was formerly a joint broadcast station with WJOB. Vazquez Development's WIMS (1420am Michigan City) and WJOB (1230am, Hammond) ended joint operations on June 1. Alexis Vazquez Dedelow and James Dedelow will continue running WJOB while former WJOB morning man Ric Federighi (along with his brothers Marc and Scott) will own and run WIMS.
Federighi is hiring local people to staff WIMS, as he wants to "return the station to Michigan City residents".
