History Of WFBO

WFBO-FM 93.3, Flagler Beach will be moved up the dial beginning Friday, April 4, 2008. Chris Lash tells us "the move to 97.7 will clear up the interference problems that the station has suffered from for over five years".
WFBO went "dark" in November of 2008.
WFBO-FM 97.7 Surrenders License 4-16-09
A year after being hit with a $24,000 FCC fine, Halifax Christian Community Church, owners of WFBO-FM 97.7 have agreed to surrender its license. The FCC alleged “operation in a manner inconsistent with its station authorization” by airing commercials and running an unlicensed transmitter. Halifax Christian Community Church first won a reduction in the fine from $24,000 to $8,100. With the offer to surrender the license it ends the investigation and lets everybody walk away. WFBO went on the air in 2003, and had been playing oldies as "Flagler's Blizzard Of Oldies". In December of 2007, someone complained that WFBO's underwriting announcements were too close to being commercials. You can read the FCC order and the consent decree here
