📖 About

WBQX (106.9 FM), widely known and branded as 106.9 Frank FM, is a commercial radio station licensed to Thomaston, Maine, and serving the picturesque Mid Coast and Central Maine regions. Originally signing on the air on May 29, 1992, under the call sign WAVX (and memorably operating for years as a classical music fixture under the WBACH moniker), the frequency shifted into its current popular classic hits format in February 2017. Today, the station is proudly owned and operated by Binnie Media, delivering a high-energy rotation of timeless favorites to listeners spanning from Ellsworth down to Boothbay, and inland toward Waterville, Augusta, and Brunswick. The station's programming focuses heavily on a dynamic playlist of classic hits spanning the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, capturing a broad adult demographic with iconic rock, pop, and dance anthems. In addition to its continuous music blocks, Frank FM serves as an integral part of the local community by broadcasting regional sports coverage, including local high school basketball games and serving as a regional affiliate home for sports broadcasts. Much of its daily programming is coordinated through its regional network connection with Portland sister stations like WFNK, ensuring polished air talent and localized engagement. Widely accessible across Midcoast Maine via its 106.9 FM signal and online digital streams, Frank FM has built a loyal, multi-generational audience. Whether running community contests like the popular cash grab promotions, highlighting local educators through the Golden Apple Awards, or providing dependable regional entertainment, 106.9 Frank FM remains a staple of everyday life across Knox, Waldo, Lincoln, and surrounding Maine counties.
