WSGV LPFM Project
The Voice of Southern Gospel
MCC Radio is preparing WSGV, a future low-power FM signal for Marion and the surrounding community.
The vision
WSGV: The Voice of Southern Gospel.
The online stream is the foundation. WSGV will extend that ministry through a local LPFM signal focused on Southern Gospel music, ministry programming, church service replays, and community-minded encouragement.
The project has moved from early vision into active preparation, with core broadcast equipment now being secured and site planning underway.
