The first station to sign on in Port Huron was WAFD, which stood for ''We Are Ford Dealers''.<ref>{{Cite web| title=The Radio Lighthouse | url=http://www.ontheshortwaves.com/Dave_Thomas/State_PDFs/19_DT_1920s-Michigan.pdf | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230501235546/http://www.ontheshortwaves.com/Dave_Thomas/State_PDFs/19_DT_1920s-Michigan.pdf | archive-date=2023-05-01}}</ref> The station was owned by the Albert B. Parfet Company, a local [[Ford Motor Company|Ford]] car dealership. WAFD signed on March 4, 1925, and signed off in 1926, with plans to relocate the station to Detroit.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-338342A1.pdf | title=Radio service bulletin | date=1927-01-31}}</ref>

[[WHLS]], coinciding with the opening of the Blue Water Bridge, signed on in 1938. It was founded by Harold Leroy Stevens and [[Fred Knorr]]. John Wismer became part owner of the station in 1952. He would later launch the first cable television system in Port Huron and [[WSAQ]] in 1983. Wismer died in 1999. WHLS remains the longest continually operated station in the region.

[[The Times Herald]] launched its own radio station in 1947 known as WTTH. That station would later become [[WPHM]], and was bought by Lee Hanson in 1986. WPHM got FM sister station [[WBTI]] in 1992. Wismer and Hanson were direct competitors until they were both bought by Bob Liggett's [[Radio First]] in 2000.

[[Radio First]] owns and operates five radio stations in the region while Port Huron Family Radio is the licensee of sole station [[WGRT]]. Non-commercial stations include [[WRSX]] (an affiliate of [[Michigan Public]] and [[NPR]]), high school station [[WORW]], and religious broadcasters [[WNFA]] and [[WNFR]].
