WPCG-LP (102.9 FM) is an LPFM Christian radio station licensed to Canton, Georgia, an exurb of metro Atlanta. The station is owned by Cherokee FM Radio.^[1][2]

The station's original application was for Woodstock, Georgia, later receiving a construction permit in 2004 for a new facility on 107.9. It city of license was changed to Canton, Georgia, also in Cherokee County. In 2008 WPCG applied to change its frequency to 103.7.

On May 14, 2013, the WPCG received permission from the FCC to operate permanently on 103.7.
