    WKHM-FM (105.3 MHz "K105.3") is a CHR-Pop radio station licensed to Brooklyn, Michigan, United States, serving the Jackson area.

    History

    [edit]

    The WKHM callsign has a long Jackson tradition and is based on the names of the original owners of WKHM AM (Fred Knorr, Harvey Hansen, and Bill McCoy). The first WKHM-FM operated on 106.1 and is now WJXQ.

    The current WKHM-FM signed on in 1995 and originally programmed easy listening music, one of the last stations in Michigan to program such a format. "Easy Relaxed 105.3" played a mixture of adult contemporary hits, soft oldies, and smooth jazz. The "easy" format was dropped in early 1998 (moving to sister WIBM 1450 AM for a short time until that station went sports) and K105.3 was born.

    On May 1, 2014, WKHM-FM launched a country music format on its HD2 subchannel, branded as "Hot Country 101.5," relayed on translator W268CA 101.5 FM Jackson, Michigan.[2] The country format is now heard on WIBM 1450 AM and translator 95.9 W240DG. Programming on 101.5 is now a simulcast of WKHM 970 AM.
