- 8/2009: New construction permit granted to change frequency to 88.9 and change power to 6,000 watts (vertical) @ 262 feet with a directional antenna. The station's location would move from Lapeer county to Macomb county northwest of Romeo.
- 1/2008: Format shifts to contemporary worship music and becomes Smile FM Praise which is expected to expand to other Michigan stations that have overlapping signals with other Smile FM stations. Smile FM Praise is discontinued in 2009 and WWKM reverts back to the original Smile FM network.
