WRNR, the last locally-owned and operated radio station in Annapolis will cease broadcasting at midnight on Friday, February 10, 2023.
The station was sold to the Peter & John Radio Fellowship which is expected to fold the station into their mix of stations in Baltimore– Christian AC, 95.1 Bright FM and Christian Preaching on WRBS 1230.
The station was =sold for $1.54 million. WRNR owner, Steve Kingston said at the time of the sale, “We are considering options for WRNR FM, including a move of the call letters, music format, and all intellectual property to another frequency on FM.” We had heard that Kingston was looking at another radio station in Southern Maryland and also looking to do something digitally via an app or internet, but those plans has since been shelved. It is unknown what Kingston will do with the call letters and intellectual property once the Peter & John Radio Fellowship takes over.
