WFXM-FM (94.3 FM) is a commercial radio station in Macon, Georgia and is owned by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audacy,_Inc. Audacy Inc.]. Its transmitter is located at SR 87/US 23/US 129 ALT (Golden Isles Highway) along the Bibb–Twiggs county line and studios located in The Shoppes at River Crossing mall in Macon. The station broadcasts a Hot-AC format with the station's HD2 subchannel carries a urban contemporary format as "Hot 95.5" (simulcast on translator W238AA at 95.5 FM) and a HD3 subchannel carrying a simulcast of WBGJ-AM.

WNEX-FM and WNFM
On January 10, 1963, WFXM-FM launched as WNEX-FM, a companion station of WNEX-AM (1400 AM), both were owned by WNEX Inc at the time. Like most FM stations in the early to mid 60s, the FM sister station would simulcast the AM station. In the case of WNEX-AM and FM, both stations carried a top 40 format and also carried the ABC Radio Network. The format was extremely popular with teenagers in Macon.

By 1970, WNEX-AM became the market's leading station for teens and young adults. Seeing the success of that station by 1971, WNEX-FM switched to an oldies format which aimed at the 45+ demographic, the station also renamed to "WNFM". This gave WNEX, Inc. a monopoly in the teen, young adult, and adult demographics.

Despite this success by 1975, ratings dropped. This was mainly because the oldies format didn't have a big enough library that it has today. And so on December 1, 1976, WNFM left the air permanently.

Relaunch as a contemporary christian station
In 1977, 1 year after WNFM went off air. WNEX, Inc. sold the license assets of WNFM to Macon Community Church for an estimated $1.3 million. On April 6, 1980 (Easter Sunday), WNFM was relaunched as WMCC-FM airing a contemporary christian format. This made it the first of its kind in Macon, under the branding "WMCC 94: God's Favorite Music", the format made it a success among Christians in the Macon market.

On April 27, 1980, WMCC-FM would launch the afternoon radio show, "The Afternoon Drive". Initially hosted by Rich Pancher, he would leave the station by late 1983 to join WBGJ-FM. The show is now hosted Michael A. Davis and his family and continues to run on the station even though the station had changed its format several times.

On July 16, 1985, WMCC-FM would gain a television sister station, WMCC-TV (now WFXM-TV). This in-turn gave the Macon Community Church, the only company in Macon to control both a TV station and radio station at the exact same time.
