History

The station signed on in September 1997[1] as WGRI with an urban gospel format. After Gospel Radio International sold the station to the Educational Media Foundation, WGRI joined K-Love on October 1, 2001,[2] and changed its call letters to WAKL on October 29.[3] The station became WKMF on May 31, 2019,[3] after EMF moved the WAKL call sign to a station it had acquired in the Atlanta market.[4]

gollark: This actually allows sending arbitrary values between 0 and 65535, at a rate of one per tick.
gollark: Interesting fact: two adjacent computers can send and receive bundled cable redstone, without any actual bundled cable.
gollark: Keanu: we appear to have lost remote access to some of the signs. This *should* self-correct after a reboot...
