WMNI (920 AM) is a radio station in Columbus, Ohio that went on the air April 26, 1958 and carries a standards music format. WMNI is locally-owned by Columbus based North American Broadcasting Company, Inc.. It broadcasts with one kilowatt of power during the day, but reduces to 500 watts at night. The station uses the C-QUAM system to provide AM stereo for compatible receivers. The Indy 500, the Brickyard, Notre Dame football, Ohio State Baseball and The Columbus Clippers (weekends only) are all carried on the station.
WMNI recently went from carrying chiefly a satellite-delivered music format ("Adult Standards" from Westwood One) to mostly local programming. As of August, 2007, WMNI has reportedly shifted back to the Westwood One (now Dial Global) "Adult Standards" format.
Previously, WMNI was Columbus's predominant country music station through the 1970s and 1980s.
