What is "wypz"

WYPZ (900 AM) is a radio station broadcasting an urban adult contemporary format. Licensed to Macon, Georgia, US, the station serves the Macon area. Originally licensed to 1240 kc. on the AM dial, WYPZ signed on the mid-1940s as WBML. During the 1950s and 1960s, WBML established itself as the station to turn to for breaking news. Station management placed mobile units on the streets of Macon throughout most of the day and night. The air staff included Bob Saggese, a Connecticut native who was also Macon's first television producer and announcer, Gordon Price, Don King, Ken Wickham, Lee Mathis, Oscar Leverette, Sid Ingraham and later Bill Elder in the 1970s. In 1976, Prairieland Broadcasters of Decatur, Illinois sold the station to Jack Tyken, who changed the format from pop to country. That format change lasted only a few months before the station was sold again and moved from its signature "Peek-A-Blue" building on Macon's Riverside Drive to a location in east Macon. Jim Lee, a Macon city police officer and later a member of the City Council, was the station's News Director throughout much of the 1960s. The air staff included two of the city's most popular announcers, Bob Saggese and Don King. After years as a Christian station, WBML was sold to Sun Broadcasting in June 2011 and began programming a Classic/Mainstream Country Format in July 2011.

The station changed its call sign to its current WYPZ on October 5, 2015.
