The station was originally licensed at the same location for 94 watts of effective radiated power with an antenna located at 98 feet, with the antenna mounted on one side of the water tower. However, in 2008 an application was made to move the antenna to the top of the tower (23 extra feet) at an offset reduction in power, where it exists today.

The station broadcasts 24 hours a day and carries 3ABN network programming in addition to locally produced programming. The station is known for carrying the Cedar Lake SDA Church service "live" and special events like Michigan Men of Faith, and Michigan Adventist Camp meeting, which are each hosted on or adjacent to the campus. WGLN is also the home of the nationally syndicated radio show 11th Hour Dispatch, a daily radio show devoted to highlighting current news in light of Bible prophecy and the hope of Jesus' soon return.
