Oldies return to WMCE-FM

January 8, 2013 Off By Eric O'Brien

Readers on the Mercyhurst Jazz Facebook Page were notified yesterday that changes were afoot on 88.5 FM. They found out today at Noon that after six years, oldies returned to the FM signal. But jazz won’t be going away from Erie. In fact it will continue online-only with streams of Pub Music and Jazz Werks as has been heard on the FM signal.

According to Dan Geary (AKA – “Captain Dan”), WMCE-FM (88.5) will simulcast sister WYNE-AM (1530) which has carried oldies over the airwaves (and online) over the last several years. And soon the WYNE callsign will go away   making room for WMCE-AM.
