Hagerstown, MD – 11/30/23 – ChristianFM Media/SmartRadio Suite, proudly announces the establishment of a groundbreaking new affiliate in Hagerstown and Frederick, MD, under the ownership of Manning Media, Inc. This expansion marks a significant milestone in the companies' commitment to delivering unparalleled Christian Contemporary Music (CCM).

Introducing HopeFM, the result of a strategic transformation of Manning Media, Inc.'s HD2 station, 102.1 MoreFM (known for its mainstream music offerings), into an immersive CCM format. This innovative venture aims to provide a positive, encouraging and uplifting listening experience for the community, reinforcing the values of hope, faith, and inspiration.

HopeFM boasts a stellar lineup of seasoned radio personalities, carefully curated to forge meaningful connections with listeners. The dynamic team includes Geoff & Danielle for Mornings, Doug Hannah for mid-days, and a roster of engaging hosts such as Lisa Barry, Andy Youso, Dave Moore, Theresa Ross, and more. This ensemble of talented individuals brings a wealth of experience and passion to the airwaves, ensuring an enriching an entertaining radio journey.

Fred Manning, President/CEO of Manning Media, Inc. sums it up: “At HOPE FM, our mission is simple yet powerful: to uplift and inspire with messages of hope, reminding our listeners of the things that truly matter in life. We believe that together, we can create a platform that not only entertains but also informs and inspires.”
