callsign_meaning = For Him (as in Jesus)WFHM-FM is a commercial FM
radio station inCleveland, Ohio broadcasting at 95.5 MHz with aChristian contemporary format. Its transmitter is located inWarrensville Heights, Ohio .It is also the Cleveland affiliate for
John Tesh 's nationally syndicated evening radio show.The station calls itself "95.5 The Fish".
For the past couple of years, the station has switched to an all
Christmas music format fromThanksgiving week until right after Christmas.Prior to July
2001 , the 95.5 frequency was the long-standing home ofWCLV , Cleveland's fine arts and classical music station. A three-way swap engineered byWCLV 's owner, Seaway Communications, plusClear Channel Communications andSalem Communications , resulted inWCLV trading the 95.5-FM license in exchange for Clear Channel's 104.9-FM license and Salem's 1420-AM license. (The 1420-AM license has since been sold back to Salem.)As a result, WHK-FM (which was a mere simulcast of WHK 1420-AM) moved from 98.1-FM in Canton to take
WCLV 's place, and was re-launched as WFHM. Prior to that, the station dates back to WTOF in the early 1980s.The
Christian contemporary format previously appeared on WZLE 104.9-FM in Lorain in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Ironically, this was the very same dial positionWCLV moved to in 2001.External links
