WCMU Classical returned to the air in the Petoskey / Harbor Springs area on 103.9 HD-2 on Tuesday, May 7, 2024. Listeners in the area can now hear WCMU Classical on HD radios, as well as on the WCMU App, on smart speakers, and at WCMU.org.

The return of WCMU Classical in northwest Lower Michigan marks a significant milestone in our restoration efforts, after a fire destroyed our Atlanta, MI transmitter site in February. Equipment that fed our signal to our station in Harbor Springs was in the transmitter building that was destroyed by the fire.

91.7FM and HD, and TV Channel 6, remain off the air in northeast Lower Michigan, although restoration efforts continue. WCMU is currently awaiting the delivery of a temporary transmitter building, installation of power at the site, and installation of new transmitters. Once that work is complete, our stations licensed to Alpena will return to the air.
