WCXI (1160 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a classic country format. Licensed to Fenton, Michigan, it first began broadcasting in 1985 under the WFEN call sign. In the past, the station has had country, oldies, and black gospel (as WWON) formats.

The WCXI calls were used in Detroit from the late 1970s to the early 1990s at what is now WDFN 1130 AM, and also in the early 1980s as WCXI-FM at 92.3 FM (now WMXD). Fittingly, both stations played country music.
