WLEN (103.9 FM) is a radio station in Adrian, Michigan, broadcasting a full-service adult contemporary format with a heavy emphasis on local news, weather and sports.
The station began broadcasting in 1965 and is one of the few remaining small-market radio stations which is still fully locally programmed and locally staffed around the clock. WLEN's music format consisted of a blend of AC/middle of the road and country music for much of its history, but has shifted in recent years to focus exclusively on AC hits, as Adrian has a 24-hour country music station in WQTE 95.3 FM.
WLEN features CNN Radio news on the hour. All music programming is live and local with the exception of two weekend specialty shows: Magic of the 80's on Saturday nights and the weekend version of the John Tesh Radio Show on Sunday nights. The station also features a popular Tejano music show on Sunday afternoons, hosted by Pal Guerrero.
Other WLEN features include national and local newscasts, "Classified" (a Tradio-style feature), "Partyline - Now!" (a Saturday-morning phone-in talk show), and weekly specialty features focusing on neighboring communities such as Tecumseh, Onsted, Blissfield, Hudson, the Irish Hills area, and Deerfield. 1
