WGBM

WGBM was a Classic Country station in Green Bay, Wisconsin. After the station was sold in 2000, the new owners did something that never, ever always happens and switched formats. Catalog album sales by classic country artists such as Ferlin Husky, Marty Robbins and Conway Twitty dropped precipitously in the immediate Green Bay area and nobody with a tattered cowboy hat toured there anymore. A guy from Oconto Falls called to complain but couldn't be heard over the din of Godsmack, Korn and System of a Down that was majestically blasting from the studios of "Razor 94.7" WZOR. WGBM was licensed to Mishicot, Wisconsin.
