[edit] History
The station was assigned the calls WAZM on 1998-04-20 but was never on the air with those calls. On 1998-10-09, the station changed its call sign to WRGX.[2]
WRGX signed on the air with a format of Christian alternative rock as a complement to sister station WPFF, which features Christian adult contemporary music. In April 2006, WRGX dropped its Christian rock format after fundraising goals to keep the format on the air were not met. The station changed to a Southern Gospel/Christian Country format which remained until after the sale in December 2007 from Family Educational Broadcasting Corporation of Door County, WI, to Bethesda Christian Broadcasting. Following the sale, WRGX changed its calls to WNLI and adopted a format of Christian talk, teaching and inspirational music.
[edit] Translators
In addition to the main station, WNLI is relayed by an additional two translators to widen its broadcast area.
