WYMS is a non-commercial radio station in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, broadcasting on 88.9 FM. The station is currently stunting, but plans to introduce an adult album alternative music format, with the station being branded as "Radio Milwaukee". The station will continue to air school board meetings of the Milwaukee Public Schools, which continues to hold the station's license, as has been done in the past.
[edit] History
For the past few years, WYMS aired a syndicated jazz music format while Milwaukee Public Schools decided on a permanent format. Under management of Radio For Milwaukee, the station has planned to introduce an eclectic contemporary music format. After many delays and target sign-on dates, the station dropped the automated jazz programming and began stunting on February 23, 2007. The new format will officially debuted on February 26, with on-air personalities set to appearing on March 5.[1]
