OVERNIGHT POWER OUTAGE IN “NORTH” IONIA
In the wee hours of July 31st, as this is written, a power outage has affected WION which is operating on generator. Consumers' Energy map shows two major "lobes" of outage, Haynor road studios of WION just barely in one of them. There is no Estimated time of restoration for this...but, as usual, it comes NOT during a storm, NOT during high winds, and NOT with any direct connection to […]
Justin’s away for a few days…but we continue the show!

We congratulate them on 1 year of being reopened...with GREAT service, a friendly environment, great food, and your favorite summer beverages, too! Congratulations from WION! -Carlyle

Have you read your WION-FM Car Radio Lately?
A long time ago, in a station not so far away... WION had a system common to FM stations called "RDS" which is where you can read information on your (mainly) car radios about artist, title, or other interesting things. A former engineer of ours wrote his own program, and for years we ran it...and we used to put birthdays on it, and other things. We never had a […]
