WIFI (1460 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a brokered format. Licensed to Florence, New Jersey, USA, the station is currently operated by Florence Broadcasting Partners, LLC.
This station was previously owned by Real Life Broadcasting. In June 2008, Real Life Broadcasting was fined $23,000 by the Federal Communications Commission for repeatedly violating the broadcasting power constraints of its license.[1]
History [edit]
The station went on the air as WRLB on June 7, 1984. On February 1, 1992, the station changed its call sign to the current WIFI.[2] The WIFI call letters had previously been used in the market for some 20 years on the station now known as WXTU.
The 1460 frequency was previously used in WIFI's coverage area by WJJZ, a daytime-only station licensed to Mount Holly, New Jersey with a transmitter site on Burlington Island. WJJZ operated from the early 1960s until its license was revoked in the early 1980s.
