WECZ

The transaction includes two other FM translators held by Family Life Ministries that were sold to Renda Radio.

The station began with a daytime-only power output of 1,000 watts, with studios at 103 North Gilpin Street in downtown Punxsutawney.

WPME underwent a major change in 1973, when it was granted a license for an FM station and moved to a new, larger building in Young Township, just north of the Punxsutawney border on PA Route 36, and co-located with its transmitter facility.

The station also aired Pittsburgh Pirates baseball day games, and syndicated talk show host Rush Limbaugh.

The station underwent another image overhaul in the late 1990s, switching to a classic country satellite-delivered format and taking the new name "The Groundhog AM 1540."

In 2002, the music was again dropped, with the increasing popularity of syndicated talk show hosts Laura Ingraham and Tom Martino.

WECZ resides in the WPXZ studio building at 904 North Main Street Extension (PA Route 36 North) in Young Township, its home since the early 1970s. Prior to the callsign change, this was known as the WPME Building, with the callsign reflecting the same.
