WMLL (96.5 FM; "96.5 Live Free Country") is an American radio station licensed to Bedford, New Hampshire, and serving the New Hampshire portion of the Merrimack Valley with a country music format.
WMLL is owned by Saga Communications, and operates as part of its Manchester Radio Group.
[3] Regular broadcasting began on June 27, with a rock format branded "96.5 The Fox";[1] the call sign was soon changed to WOXF.
[6] The call sign was changed to WQLL on August 15, 1997;[5] that month, Saga bought the station outright in a $3.3 million deal that was concluded on November 21, 1997.
The new format was advertised as "Continuous Country Without The Static", as country music was previously available in the Manchester area via adjacent market stations (Portsmouth-market WOKQ, Concord-market WNHW, and two Boston stations); Saga already programmed classic country on the third HD Radio subchannel of WZID and on translators in Concord and Manchester.
