Finland's Kiss FM
Kiss FM was a network of more than a dozen Contemporary Hit Radio stations across Finland. They were on the air from 1995 until 2005 and could be heard in all of the country's major regions including every city with a population over 40,000. Kiss FM caused a ruckus in 2000 when their morning show broadcast a live, in-studio ménage à trois. This didn't sit well with the government's broadcasting authority, even in famously liberal Finland.

CFEQ
CFEQ began in 1999 as a low-power Christian station broadcasting in Winnipeg, Manitoba at 98.5 FM. A short time later they moved to 107.1 FM and became "Freq 107". CFEQ eventually dropped the religious music in favor of secular Alternative Rock. Interestingly, their Wikipedia page says that the station "maintained that it fulfilled its conditions of license for religious music by finding spiritual meaning in each mainstream song that it played." A name change to "Ignite 107" and a return to Christian Rock took place around 2008.
107.1 FM is currently CKCL and airs a Classical music format.

WDPT
Today we spent part of the Labor Day holiday on a 20 mile bike ride from Troy, Ohio to the town of Piqua. We had a nice lunch at a local bar before getting back on the bike trail for the return ride.
On the way back I noticed this sign along the bike path which I thought was funny. "Visitors Welcome"?! At a waste water treatment plant? Has anyone ever actually visited this place to see what happens to their sewage sludge? Book your trip today!
It was super hot this afternoon (about 90 degrees and humid) so when I saw this fountain in front of the Hobart Institute I decided to hop off my bike and jump in. No arrest was made.
WDPT "95.7 The Point" was a Classic Hits station licensed to Piqua, Ohio in the early 2000s. 95.7 FM now carries the WHIO-FM call letters and simulcasts the News/Talk programming of WHIO 1290 AM.

WTMJ has carried Brewers games for all but two seasons since the team moved to Milwaukee in 1970.

Another Brewers-themed WTMJ sticker can be seen here. A WTMJ Packers magnet is over here.
