Having trouble receiving WBFO?
We’re building a stronger WBFO.
We’re installing a new transmitter—but while we do that, you might not hear our signal in all the place you usually do, at the level you are used to. WBFO HD1 and JazzWorks WBFO HD 2 will also be down for a while.
We hope to be at full power by Thursday, June 27—but in the meantime, you can always stream us live on our website, or listen on our app—available in the App store or at Google play.
