Thoughts From Outgoing Operations Manager Lara Hrycaj
Hello WHFR Listeners,
After being a WHFR Staff Member since 1992 and WHFR's Operation Manager since 1998, I have taken a position at Governors State University in University Park, Illinois (just south of Chicago). I will be a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Media Studies focusing on Audio Storytelling at Governors State. Additionally, I will be developing a radio station for them: first, an internet station and then a broadcast station. I wouldn't be able take this position if it wasn't for all my years at WHFR and the support from the staff, officers, and management.
Storm Status
We apologize to those of you who are attempting to tune in to the station on the FM signal. Once again, heavy rains have caused an issue with our transmitter. We plan to have the situation addressed as soon as possible, but meanwhile, please continue to enjoy the music from the website's streaming option.
Thank you for your support of unique, non-commercial radio.

FM Signal Intermittent Due To Weather Issues
With the recent storms blowing through Metro-Detroit, WHFR sustained some weather damage to our transmitter. Our FM broadcast is off-line at this time, but you can still stream WHFR live from anywhere via the internet at whfr.fm. Please continue to check for updates and we hope to have the issue resolved soon. Thank you!

On Air Issues
Thank you for your support of WHFR and our mission to bring you music little heard elsewhere to the airwaves.
In the last 24 hours we have had issues with the power to our transmitter which has caused periodic interruptions to our broadcast single at 89.3 on the FM dial.
The good news is you can continue to enjoy the music from our web site. We are working on the issue with the FM signal and will be there to serve the community again soon.
