WPCG-LP is a low-power FM radio station run by Cherokee Presbyterian Church, located in the exurbs of north-northwestern metro Atlanta.

It first had Woodstock, Georgia (just to west of its indiated location) as the city of license, and had a construction permit, applying in 2004 for a license to cover the new facility, permitted by the FCC in 2003. It later applied for a modification of the CP to change its city of license north to Canton, Georgia, also in Cherokee County. This was granted in October 2005, and the station now transmits from a point north-northwest of Canton and east-southeast of Waleska. On FCC maps, it appears to cover northern Canton and all of Waleska, however the northern and northwestern bounds appear to be drawn as a minimum-distance radius, indicating that terrain blocking makes the real distance less than shown.

The station also likely gets a great deal of interference from co-channel WHTA FM, a full-power station south of Atlanta.
