History

Originally WFUR-FM and the sister station to WFUR, the station was constructed on the AM tower site in 1960. The primary reason for construction of WFUR-FM was the early morning and night time audience that WFUR could not reach because at that time, WFUR was only allowed daylight operation (sunrise to sunset). WFUR-FM was the third FM station in the Grand Rapids market. Through the years, WFUR-FM increased power as opportunities became available. The final increase took place in 1983. Agreements were signed with other 102.9 FM stations in Ann Arbor and Milwaukee to accept any interference caused by each of them going to 50,000 watts. WFUR-FM constructed a new, taller 635-foot (194 m) with the antenna at a height above average terrain of 490 ft., and installed a new transmitter (Continental) at that time.

Effective May 11, 2020, WFUR-FM was sold to the Bible Broadcasting Network, and the station changed its call sign to WYHA. As WYHA began carrying Bible Broadcasting Network programming, its former programming continued to air on WFUR and its translator at 92.9 FM.

gollark: It isn't a very good case.
gollark: They had designed ARM CPUs for ages for their phones. Recently they got good enough and/or Intel annoyed them enough that they switched over.
gollark: ARM is an instruction set. "Traditional CPU[s]" use the x86 instruction set. People argue a lot over which design is best but broadly speaking there doesn't seem to be *that* much difference, although x86 has some advantages like I think greater code density and downsides like variable length instructions being annoying to decode.
gollark: That's not a very valid comparison. But Apple's cores are somewhat better than available x86 ones.
gollark: Apparently they did lose most of their CPU design team to some other company recently, so who knows.
