WPNW is a conservative-based news/talk radio station in Holland, Michigan, in the United States.

Signing on the air on November 2, 1956, it originally had the call letters WJBL (standing for the initials of owner-partners John, Bud and Len). Sister station WJBL-FM had a frequency of 94.5MHz FM - the current frequency of WTNR.

WJBL-AM became WWJQ in January 1982 when purchased by Lanser Broadcasting. In the mid-1980s, WWJQ was a Beautiful Music station. When it was paired with FM Sister station WJQK, they were known as WJQ AM and FM. In January 2003, WWJQ became WPNW ("praise and worship").

Lanser Broadcasting also owns WJQK.

As of September 1, 2005, it is once again a news/talk station, after several years as a praise and worship station. Its positioned as "1260 The Pledge".
