WMJO (97.3 FM, "Joe FM") is a radio station broadcasting a variety hits format. Licensed to Essexville, Michigan, it first began broadcasting under the WIXC call sign (now used by a sports radio station in Titusville, Florida).
97.3 was the exclusive radio broadcaster of the OHL's Saginaw Spirit ice hockey team. Spirit games are now broadcast on WSGW (100.5).
The station used to have a classic rock format and was known as Eagle 97.3, and before that, the station was known as New Country 97.3.
WMJO airs exactly the same playlist, song-for-song and in play order, as its sister station WHZZ 101.7 FM "Mike FM" in Lansing, Michigan, but is not a true simulcast, as it is imaged separately.
