WYFR Last Night Of Broadcasts is Tonite!
« on: June 30, 2013, 2236 UTC »
Just in case you need that WYFR QSL, this is supposed to be their last day of transmissions.
You can catch them now [2230] to I think 0330 on 6115 in English to Canada.

I got an e-mail from Echo one who says he heard a "WYFR Okeechobee Florida" ID on 6115 at 4:59z. Automated system, maybe?

It could be they still are under contract to relay others such as Radio Taiwan even though they have stopped all WYFR programming?
