WTOU


WTOU is a radio station licensed to Portage, Michigan broadcasting an urban adult contemporary format, provided by ABC Radio Networks. Owned by Midwest Communications, the station serves the greater Kalamazoo, Michigan area.
WTOU is also heard in Portage/Kalamazoo on translator 95.5 W238AL. The translator was formerly used to relay country sister station WNWN-FM based in Battle Creek, but when another sister station, 96.5 WFAT, was switched to country music as WYZO, W238AL changed its programming source from WNWN-FM to the then-WNWN. W238AL is now the third FM translator in Michigan to relay an AM station, after stations in Big Rapids and Charlevoix/Petoskey. The translator on 95.5 allows "The Touch" programming to continue after WTOU signs off for the night.
WTOU has previously been a Top 40 station as WTPS in the 1960s, a country station as WBUK in the 1970s and 1980s, and a beautiful music station as WHEZ.
On September 12, 2019, sister station WTOU and W274AQ broke away from the simulcast and flipped to classic hits.
