    WMGR (930 AM) is a Christian radio station broadcasting a Christian Adult Contemporary format. Licensed to Bainbridge, Georgia, United States, the station serves the Tallahassee area. The station was owned by Kevin Dowdy, through licensee Flint Media Inc. prior to purchase by Clear Channel Communications.[1]

    History[edit]

    WMGR was established in the late 1940s by Marvin Griffin, who later became the 72nd Governor of Georgia. The call sign was for Marvin Griffin Radio.
