WOUF (750 AM) is a radio station licensed to Petoskey, Michigan, and owned by Suzanne Henderson through N Content Marketing.[1]
The station began broadcasting in June 2000, holding the call sign WWKK, and aired an oldies format with programming from Westwood One.[2][3][5] The station was branded "Kool 750".[6] The station was owned by Stone Communications.[2] In 2002, the station's weekday programming was changed to talk.[3][7] The station retained the "Kool 750" branding.[7] In 2007, Stone Communications exchanged the station for 1210 WLDR in Kingsley, Michigan, with Roy Henderson's Fort Bend Broadcasting taking ownership of 750 WWKK and a payment of $244,000 in cash.[3][8] In April 2007, the station's format was changed to country music, simulcasting WLDR-FM.[3][9] In May 2007, the station's call sign was changed to WLDR.[4] In 2008, the station's call sign was changed to WARD,[4] which was named after Roy Henderson's son.[10] In 2014, WARD and its simulcast partner WLDR-FM adopted an adult contemporary format.[4]
In mid-October 2019, WARD went silent (off the air).[11] The call letters were changed to WOUF, previously used on two other Northern Michigan stations, on November 9, 2021.
