WEMP (98.9 FM) is an FM radio station licensed to Two Rivers, Wisconsin currently airing an easy listening/oldies format under a two-day program test authority period using the facilities of WLKN (98.1) just west of Newton, which went off the air to allow the PTA to go forward using their antenna and transmitter. The station covers the Manitowoc/Two Rivers market, along with eastern Sheboygan County, including Sheboygan. The station is owned by Mark Heller via Metro North Communications, LLC, which is the station's licensee. While the station goes through its PTA, its broadcast currently originates from the WLKN studios in Cleveland.

The station began broadcasting via PTA on the evening of December 7, 2013, nine days ahead of the expiration of the station's construction permit after the station's original plan to build a new tower in Newton was rejected by the town board. The station's signal is also streaming via WLKN's website during the PTA period. The station has an unactioned request to move the city of license to Howards Grove, north of Sheboygan.
