WIOS (1480 AM) is a radio station broadcasting an adult standards format. Licensed to Tawas City, Michigan, it first began broadcasting in 1958.

WIOS was formerly a Music of Your Life affiliate station and then affiliated with Jones Radio Networks's Jones Standards format in January 2008 after Music of Your Life was dropped by Jones and picked up by another satellite distributor. After Jones Standards was discontinued on September 30, 2008, WIOS kept its standards format but went with locally automated programming rather than continuing to use a satellite feed.
