WBDK (96.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting an adult standards format. Licensed to Algoma, Wisconsin, United States, the station serves the Green Bay area. The station is currently owned by Nicolet Broadcasting, Inc.
The station went on the air as WOMA on 1986-11-05 on the 96.5 MHz frequency by D & M Broadcasting. The station struggled for years and was sold in 1989 to Wheeler Broadcasting in Shawano, WI, who slowly introduced country music format by mixing it with its then-oldies format and progressed to make it all-country. Due to the large distance of other Wheeler Broadcasting holdings in relation to WOMA, Wheeler unloaded it to Nicolet Broadcasting in 1992 for $150,000.
A number of changes happened shortly after the change of ownership:
WBDK broadcasts in HD Radio and features a classic country format on its secondary HD2 channel. The HD2 programming is relayed on translator W277BP 103.3 FM, licensed to Sturgeon Bay. W277BP was formerly a translator of religious broadcaster WRVM Suring, Wisconsin.
