WCEM originally signed on the air on November 11, 1947. Its original call letters were WCMD, and was known as "The Voice of the Shoremen". The station was previously owned by MTS Broadcasting Stations before being bought by Draper in 2018.[1] It formerly broadcast nostalgic standards and talk radio before switching to the sports radio format in February 2019. Under the sports radio format the station broadcasts Baltimore Orioles games, Baltimore Ravens games, University of Maryland football and basketball games, local high school football games, and the powerboat races on the Choptank River.
