WPER is a Contemporary Christian formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Fredericksburg, Virginia, serving Central Virginia and rebroadcasting sister station WPIR. WPER is owned and operated by Baker Family Stations.

Callsign

On February 13, 2018, Baker Family Stations swapped the long-time callsign for their Frederickburg station, WJYJ, with the callsign for their Hickory, NC station, WPIR. A week later, Baker again swapped the now-WPIR's call sign with that of sister station WPER.

Translator

In addition to the main station, WPER is relayed by five FM translators to widen its broadcast area.
