Henry Ford Campus Closed - Classical Programming

The challenging weather is causing an interruption to our regular programming. Henry Ford College shut down Thursday afternoon and, when this happens, our DJs aren't allowed to come in to do their shows. We hope to return to regular programming at 10 AM Saturday morning, but that is dependent on the college reopening.

In the meantime, please enjoy our classical programming and stay safe and warm.

RADIO VAULT REMEMBERS GLORIA McMILLIAN

At the age of 88, radio-TV actress Gloria McMillian passed away this past week. She is probably best known for her role as Harriet Conklin on the Eve Arden comedy OUR MISS BROOKS. opposite Richard Crenna.

FM Signal Update

WHFR Loyal Listeners,

Great news! Today we took the first steps to being back on the air at full strength on 89.3FM. After our new antenna was installed on our tower this afternoon, we notice a significant improvement in our FM signal. That means you can once again enjoy our carefully-crafted independent, non-commercial programming near and (somewhat) far from the campus of Henry Ford College.
