WGUY (1230 AM) is a radio station licensed to Veazie, Maine, USA. The station is currently owned by Charles Begin, through licensee Pine Tree Broadcasting, LLC.[1] The station signed on in November 2011 as a simulcast of co-owned WNZS. In May 2012 WGUY broke away from the WNZS simulcast, began simulcasting on 94.1 FM and broadcasting an oldies format. WGUY is also one of the flagship stations of the Black Bear Sports Network, carrying University of Maine basketball, baseball, and softball. In the event of a conflict between the Maine Black Bears' men's and women's basketball teams, the women's game is relocated to co-owned WBAN (formerly WNZS) or WCYR.[2]

On December 30, 2015, WGUY changed their format from oldies to a simulcast of soft adult contemporary-formatted WRMO 93.7 FM.[3]

On December 1, 2016, WGUY and W231CH broke the simulcast of WRMO and became the exclusive home of The Wave. WRMO switched to the Maine Public Classical Network.
