  • WLUN 100.9 FM is a radio station broadcasting a sports radio format in Pinconning, Michigan, USA, owned by the Great Lakes Loons, under the licensee name of Michigan Radio Communications. WLUN has broadcast a variety of different formats since signing on in 1983, including country music, adult contemporary, and classic hits. The station is fondly remembered by some in the Tri-Cities market for its time as Top 40/album rock station WFXZ, "Foxy 101," in the early 1980s. As WYLZ, 100.9 FM and its former sister station, WILZ, were known together as "Wheelz 104.5 and 101" from 1999 to 2007. In June 2007, WYLZ was sold by Citadel Broadcasting to The Last Bastion Station Trust, as part of ABC Radio's absorption into Citadel. Upon ending the simulcast, WYLZ switched to a satellite-fed country format under the "Thunder Country" moniker. Despite the programming changes, WYLZ continued to air play-by-play of Great Lakes Loons baseball during the summer of 2007. The satellite country format was a stopgap measure to keep the station on the air until it could be sold to a new owner and debut a permanent format. WILZ 104.5 maintains its classic rock format and Citadel ownership. Wikipedia
